Need Brittany Blue Paint.
« on: August 05, 2011, 03:03:00 AM »
Were getting ready to paint a 67 Fairlane. Original color is Brittany Blue. Can you get this from PPG still? We are in Canada. If not, any other brand suggestions?
Thanks, Randy

I just bought paint for my '66 coupe from my local PPG dealer. All I needed was their code and they were able to look it up and mix the paint for me. Call and give them code# 12843, Brittany Blue Poly. They should be able to mix it for you.

FYI 67 & 68 Brittney Blue are different colors so be careful.

Getting really close to being ready to order paint for our 67 coupe! The cars paint code is Q, Brittany Blue. I want to make certain I provide our body man the correct paint code. Is 12843 the correct Brittany Blue for our 67 Mustang? Do I tell him that is the PPG number?

Did you look under 1967 articles then under paint codes in the Library?  Scans of the period PPG/Ditlzer charts are there

Thanks! Found it, 12843 is the number he needed. Sure didn't want to give him the wrong paint code!
