Thanks Willie,
Do you have the code for the dark brown color used on the Holt Tractors? I didnt want to paint the frame Indian Red. Also, why did they paint the inside of the canopy blue? Thanks, Jim.

I think I heard one time the blue was to resemble the clear blue sky. Was that to make the operator more comfortable along with the roof?LOL

Willie, Thanks for the explanation. I will take the code down to the auto paint shop and have it matched up.
