Re: paint code?

If you have the original console glove box cover then it will be on the back of that on a 3" x 5" sticker that will read "Service Parts Identification". On the bottom of that sticker you will see a series of letters and numbers that will read something like: BC/CC WA- L8751 U8751, (L=Lower color / U=Upper color) and that will be the color codes for your car. Here are the paint codes for your 84 camaro:

1984 11 WA 3967 White 1984 15E WA 8310 Silver 1984 15W WA 8311 Silver 1984 19 WA 848 Black 1984 22 WA 8238 Light Blue 1984 27 WA 7686 Dark Blue 1984 59 WA 8509 Beige 1984 62 WA 8240 Light Briar Brown 1984 65E WA 8652 Dark Gold 1984 65W WA 8653 Dark Gold 1984 67 WA 7688 Dark Briar Brown 1984 75 WA 7211 Spectra Red 1984 82E WA 8322 Charcoal 1984 82W WA 7714 Charcoal

Re: paint code?

jharrison5,
I too was wondering about paint codes, I wanted to paint my 1989 IROC grey wheels gold. Is there a website somewhere that I can look up paint codes?

If there was then a sticky would be handy if it listed all codes, instead of people asking for specifics.

I just use http://http://paintref.com/paintref/index.shtml

You can look up almost any make and model from 1922 to current. It will give you all of the proper info for what your looking for.

Cheers,
I've had a look around and it will prove valuable, I couldn't see how too search for wheel colour codes though.
