I just recreated it, thanks to Mike for sending me a copy of my original! Still took me a couple hours to get all new links to pictures but it's mostly there road's '49 build thread

Hello there. I am restoring a 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 convertible back to it's original color of AA-1 Silver Poly. My cars original color has 3 other paint jobs that are laid on top of it, and the original paint that does shine though no longer looks silver. It has a greenish tint to it.

My trouble comes here. The paint shop I decided to go with refuses to use certain paints because they end up looking like hell a few years down the road. They want ONLY to use a 2 stage Sherwin Williams water based paint and none of the cross references show up with this code. Diztler has 32398 as their number, and the Sherwin Williams code of 2400 doesn't work either as it won't cross over into the world of Water Based paints.

I've gotten this info from this link:

Any help would be great. Have any of you guys painted your cars the correct AA-1 color in water based? If so, please help.

Thanks in advance!

I bought the '49 in October of 2009. Back story in a condensed version is that my new wife (married Sept. '09) told me at one point that she wanted an old car. This is her wedding gift from me. It was supposed to be a surprise, and it was for a couple months until my sister had too much to drink one night and spilled the beans.

So here it was the day I went to look at it the first time. Of course it was raining...











It was rusted, glass was busted, it smelled like ass and there was dirt and grime everywhere. Basically love at first sight, right?
