Do you have the build sheet for this car? If so, and it can be read, you already have the info you seek.

First welcome to the site.

The buildsheet is limited to what paint marks are shown as there were allot more than what was originally applied to the cars.  Also paint marks could change during the production years. If you have not read the article in the Library then I suggest you take the time as it explains where many are found, their locations and other supporting info without going in to details for specific years.

Would always suggest that you only focus on paint marks if EVERY other details is 100% correct. A paint mark does not make up for an incorrect part or many other details.

If you provide when your car was built we should be able to help out with some of the standard basic paint marks. Remember, don't guess and remember you are responsible for the marks and other details on the car since many will just copy your car blindly assuming that you did the home work and research while they try and take the easy route. Allot of marks we see seem to have migrated from other plants, years and models producing some ugly examples  ::)
