its a bronze... but not just any bronze...


some say its 1969 GM Saddle Metalic... some dissagree.. to me it needs to be a bit flatter and a bit darker than that but that is a start.

but its DEFINATELY NOT SILVER!!!!!

we have a 555 D and 2 444's..

I remember reading that early 80's Mazda Bronze is the correct color, can't be any more specific as to paint codes though. Don't imagine Mazda had too many shades of bronze in their lineup then.

what we did on the one 444 was take a piece that had not been repainted and had paint mixed untill it matched.... and then when it was sprayed it was a tad off... but that took patients oh and a paint supplier that owed a big favor!
