1968 and 1969 Paint Codes

Were the codes in 68 and 69 denoted by a letter or number? I'm trying to add these two years to the registry today and want to make sure I'm accurate with the tags on the car. The 69 Olds paint chart show letters next to the colors. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

'68 are letters and '69 are numbers.

John,

If your question is about the "- A PNT" on the cowl tag, the dash indicates a special order color. In 1969 this was one of the three normally "Toronado only" colors - Nugget Gold, Caribbean Turquoise, or Amethyst - available on a Cutlass as "special order". Of course, the "A" is the top color.
