    The paint code is located on the manufacturer's sticker on the drivers side door. It's located near the bottom _ EXT PNT - followed by two letters. That's the code. Don't have a DTR so I couldn't tell you but a Silver Birch is JP.

    JL is the paint code for DTR.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:
    Alex "Marauderboi" Vachon 3/2/92-8/13/10
    Paula Babineau 1/9/67-8/2/11
    Rex Weinbender
    Peter


    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    I have been watching paint codes for Ford E-350's for years and I see it a lot a color goes away and returns with new code years later?

    Yes, but as they discovered with my 2006 E250, it's not always the same shade so not an exact match. The year is needed also

Looks like there's been a serious splintering. I never thought it'd be possible for this to happen to a group of owners of a car model that sold no more than 14000 copies over 2 model years. Kind of scary, when thinking of the scale. Makes one think that maybe it'd be a good idea to do some introspection and think about what each of us needs to do to build a solid community, analyze what it is we're all honestly looking for by belonging to this community.

    Sometimes companies will change a color just a pinch. What one may think is the same color won't be ... it will be off just enough to look funky.

    It's also not uncommon for a color to use the same exact code(s) - but use different names among divisions within the company, while actually being the exact same color.

    Take 1972 General Motors for instance. If you click on the links below for each division & review their respective paint charts ... you will find their are certain colors that all the divisions share by looking at the paint code #'s, even tho the actual name of the color may differ.

    EXAMPLE - take a look at the first color listed on each of the 1972 GM paint chip charts below. You will see that it's white. While all (5) divisions share the same (2) digit paint code(11) & the other (4) digit code of 2058 respectively ... the chosen name that each division uses is different except for Olds & Pontiac, which both called it "Cameo White". Further review of each of the (5) divisions charts will show there are several colors with the same codes that were shared - but their chosen names were different.

    Oldsmobile
    Cameo White

    Buick
    Arctic White

    Cadillac
    Cotillion White

    Pontiac
    Cameo White

    Chevy
    Antique White



    It was time for a new signature .....

    Here it is .....
