LV paint colors.

I need a chunk of metal or whatever with the OEM red and white for a '67 FJ45LV. Here in Central America they can mix paint to match but they DON'T do the X number of drops of this and that to a code!

So, anyone with a hunk of metal with the OEM red and white not too badly faded or if you're painting your truck with the OEM colors how about hitting a chunk of metal with a few coats of the color for me? I'm looking to make it as close to OEM as possible when you look at it from the outside and even in the interior.

I won't need it for at least 6 months but if I can get it in the summer it makes my life easier.

The paint is chipping off the convertable. It is the stock red color (T-332 Seminole Red). I think i saw a red chuck about the size of a quarter the other day. Would that work?

I'll give it a try! What about the white, is that the standard 'Cruiser white or did it change over the years?

Mine is going to be the Seminole Red/White two tone.

I have never figured out what the white color is. I think it was more of a cream than white though.

Is it the same white that is on the 55's? Alpine White is what that was.

Mike, was the LV white the same as the '40 series white of similar vintage? I have the hood off a '40 with the nosebone ornament. I believe it is the original paint and it's a creamy white.
