The best I can suggest is to make a paint that would be gold with a bronze base. One Shot or sign painters paint would be the best to use for stripes. How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

Chatter has the chance to “set the color standard” for the pin stripes….the experts here should be able to come closer to what the ”˜correct’ color should be … a lot better than me for sure. Has everyone made their own mix or what in the past? People are like a box of chocolates you never know what you are going to get...

I don't know the exact "Gold" you are looking for, but I used this vendor for my fender stripe on my '32 spt cpe and was very happy with the results Finesse Pinstriping Inc.
