Re: body color
when you say the "body tag" is missing what do you mean, in the center console there should be a piece of paper (RPO codes) this will have your paint code on it unless the car was repainted, in this case you'll have to take it to an autobody supply/paint shop and they'll take a pic of the paint and the computer can match it.

Re: body color
Says in the chilton auto repair manual that the paint code is on a tag near the hood latch and rad support under the hood . Anyway I'm just going to take it the body shop. Thanks for info
