Can any one please tell me a place to start looking for paint for my Lark. The code is P 6313 Green Mist, I live in south eastern MN and I can not find anyone around here to mix me anything that comes close to the color.

I found a FLAPS that carried DuPont paint products very helpful with older car and truck paints.
I don't know what has happened since DuPont sold it's automotive paint division to Axcalta or Excalta or something like that.sigpic1957 Packard Clipper Country Sedan

If Dupont does not work, try having your Automotive Paint Store check out PPG or RM Brand's color charts and formulas.
This should be no harder than matching a '60's, '70's or '80's GM or Ford color, they do this everyday.
Chris, if you go to your Duplicate post before someone posts on it you will be able to click on "Delete" at the bottom of the page to remove it.StudeRich

If you can remove a small flat part, polish it good and take it to any paint store. They should be able to match it with a small reader that they have and then tint the color to match your part. I do it all the time on repaints where I have no idea what they used for color. Most times it's a pretty good match.
