Where to buy OEM Paint Colors?

Hello,

I recently purchased a 1962 Olds 98 Holiday Sports Sedan. She's a beauty but could benefit from a new paint job. I am trying to keep things original, willow mist is the color, and was wondering if anyone out there knows where to buy paint that is OEM or matches the OEM colors.

Thanks!

Any paint shop should be able to match the color with the paint code. If you want spray bombs some Napa locations can color match as well.

Okay, Does anyone know what the paint codes were for 1962? I think there were 16 colors... Thanks

Some NAPA stores can also mix OEM matched paint.

The store I worked at carried two qualities of paint finish products. The Professional grade and what I call DIY grade. Both look great when applied correctly.
