And you can't get it from a paint code.
I am not absolutely certain the whole rest of the vehicle has been parked inside a dark room with just its forehead sticking out allowing only the cap to fade. The color is faded all about the vehicle is what logic dictates.
It's why you take a panel in to a paint mixer to be analyzed as to the real color of the vehicle as it now sits many years later.
The difference between taking a paint code to the mixer or a panel to the mixer is:
The panel is the correct aged color and the code is what left the factory.
Once again I'm going to suggest a professional, someone who won't try code paint on an old vehicle.
