I am not recommending this company as a source as I have never dealt with them but they do have chips and color combinations for your car online.

Hi,
I bought some single stage 2-Component Urethane from www.autocolorlibrary.com for my 1928 Capital. I used the library to match the year and color, although through research I was able to get the correct color name for the year. The shade of the delivered paint was perfect, and it applied flawlessly, although I am an experienced auto painter. I believe they use PPG paints. If you do not know the exact name, as the chip on the monitor may look a lot different, you can get a color matched with a color computer at your nearest auto paint store, like Finish Master, or NAPA.
Best,
Paul

I recomend them for sure. They were the only people who could mix the blue for the 31 sedan delivery. Weird color. It has a green hue in the sun light. Everything else I had mixed was just blue. If you run into a snag see if Jimmy Chips is still there.....Joe
