Hey Guys, I need some help here. My '57 K6-W300 is ready for paint next week, so I sent the shop the paint code for 1957 Dodge Truck Pontchartrain Green Ditzler PPG # 41256 and/or Dupont 93-72213. This is the dark green we all know and love. My shop uses Valspar/House of Kolor paint mixing system, but when they used the code it came out almost like a high gloss Olive Drab. We went to his Paint Chip library and the color that looks right to me is a Fiat Green, called "Verde Bosco Perla".

Does anyone have experience with the Valspar color codes to get the proper Pontchartrian Green?
