Hello: Does anyone know of a vendor that makes/ supplies factory paint for the 86 MY? I should be ready to paint the 86GT this Spring but want a specific color and so far I haven't found much out there. I'm picky about the color and quality as well. It will NOT have clearcoat on it as it never did. Thanks much.

I don't think its so much vendor, but paint code. That should be available on your door tag. LMR also has a graphic of all the paint codes and color you can cross reference.

I have the Ford paint code but finding the right supplier is the challenge. I'll keep looking.

Just searched paint and body supply near you, these may help a lot if you have anything they could color match. They may even be able to find the code and match to that.

Or I have this place in my bookmarks, you might try searching there as well. Maybe they'll have something?
