If I Decide on a full repaint, is it possible to get a match off the old paint codes?

As for replacing the 4x4 and decal stripes, would a graphic wrap shop be the best way to go?

Thanks

If you have the paint code any place that mixes automotive paint should be able to mix it up.
I just had my 73 LUV done in the stock clamatis blue(light blue)

Yeah usually it is pretty easy to get the color from the paint code. Some places have a scanner that can match the paint visually if there is an area that isn't faded like under the cowl etc.

And i would think a graphic shop would be able to do stripes if you want it done cheaper than having then painted on, maybe one of the places that does the wraps and such.

Correct on all fronts. Just depends on budget now. I have the codes. Getting the body rust out and primer ed is stage 1.
Then it's a matter of seeing how much it costs to match what I have vs a full spray.

I found a graphic shop that has already done the stripe and 4x4 graphics.

Thank you all. This is like being a kid at Christmas
