My daughter's 84 126SD is light green. I'm pretty sure the paint code is 804. (I jotted down the numbers off the plate on the radiator support. I'm not absolutely sure that three digit sequence is the paint code but it's the only one that made sense) I've looked at three or four online paint code interpreters (I planned to buy touch up paint from PaintScratch.com) and none show an 804 paint code. Also, none seem to have the exact shade of green that the car is. Anyone have any idea if 804 is a legit paint code and where I might get some touch up paint? Here's a picture of it:

Kerry,
The paint code on my 84 300SD is by itself on the lower left of that plate.

thistle green i believe that is called. my green SD is that color. Probably easier to have it custom mixed/matched, than order it online. Thats what we did on ours..

I'll have to check the numbers again. Car is currently at a storage lot. Thistle Green looks too light at the PaintScratch website. Picture I attached makes the car look lighter than it is. I've order quite a bit of touch up paint from PaintScratch based on the paint code, and they have all been accurate.

I just happen to have all paint codes and samples as well as interior colors.

881 is indeed "Thistle Green Metallic"

Of course the flash makes it look a little different.

Anyone else?
