Does anyone know if the upper and lower paint codes differed on a 76 TA.
The body tag on mine is damaged, the lower shows 13L (sterling silver), but I cannot read the section for upper paint code.
Were any painted 2 tone?, or would it be safe to assume that the top is the same.
With my full VIN, is there any way i can get a full build sheet with all details?
Thanks

PHS would have the details of the car.

The car would be one color unless it has a vinyl top.
So probably the lower code would be 13L also.

Thanks for the reply, so the PHS documents will have the paint codes (excuse my ignorance, have never seen what's provided).
I have the lower code, just not the upper.
The car is not the original colour at present, but the underlying was what looked like carousel red, so assumed that was factory. Then I found silver in only a few areas so far (interior around parcel tray etc) so began to wonder.
I may have the only 2 tone silver / orange TA produced lol.
Looks like the carousel red colour change was well done, a long time ago?

I believe on PHS’s website they have a sample of the build sheet documents you get with their packet. It does give you the paint codes. The PHS packet is a must buy if you’re a Pontiac owner. It has tons of information about your specific TA, and I guarantee you’ll discover some surprises re: the original options and configuration.

With my 76 TA it was very confusing to try to decipher which layer was in fact the original paint color. The PHS packet provides the definitive answer.

It would need to be a painted 2-tone roof, which vinyl is not. Even W50 Formulas don't apply.
