903 universal blue in today’s color code

Posted April 12, 20204 yr

Happy ? to all Z owners!

Spring is here and as I am about to start the restoration of my ‘70 903 240, I tried to scan the hidden and untouched areas of the paint to see if I could figure out the right mix with no avail...

Tried to research online but no definitive answer as it is always “close to”. In the paint-shop computer 903 does not show up either once scanned.

Anyone here had it really decoded to original specs?

Thank you!

I found 903 listed here, looks to be available in quantity: https://www.automotivetouchup.com/

Previously I contacted this group for touchup not listed, they quickly found the formula and added it to their listing. They also sell in quantity: https://www.paintscratch.com/

Tks! I’m more looing for an alternative/current mix to use at my bodyshop place. We tried to scan the color but the results were not so, how to say,? Conclusive?

Possibly because it is a metallic paint it does not scan accurately.

I want to comment that PPG was the paint supplier for the Vintage Z program. They have the proper color. Check with the PPG paint supplier in your area.
