Body colour

Post by Johnny Dart »

Slightly confused on this.Perhaps someone can shed some light :lol:

My 1973 Dart colour is stated on the window sticker as Y31W.
But on the broadcast sheet as JY3.
What is the colour and what is it called.
Thanks

Thanks Dart,
But I'm still not sure what the "j" is in front of the Y3 on the broadcast sheet,
or the other letters with Y3, on the window sticker.
I have looked at the sticky , but no solid help there.
Y3 on the colour chips doesn't look like my car .

I think the first letter is the year.
My colour is J5 sublime but also known as FJ5 , the f meaning 1970.

I'm sure someone will know what the W1 means, I don't :oops:

Don't forget to allow for 40 years of weathering.

I'd say it looks spot on as your original colour!!!! :thumbright:
