Duplicolor & Plastikote (sp?) both have many different shades of greys and a book telling you colors for respective years

Dupilcolor is carried by Autozone
Plastikote is sold by Pep Boys and Advance
hope that helps some

BTW,,Duplicolor is a laquer paint and Plastikoe is an enamel
Matching paint is often hard from a can due to time/weathering/fade
Some auto paint suppliers can sometimes make you a can of paint colormatched,,, but like the dealer,,,be prepared to grab your ankles
