Hello I believe that code is 48, PPG number was (2173) for 1970 chevelle, corvette, camaro, nova, if that is out of date, all you would have to do is go to your local auto-motive paint store and get them to cross reference that number to a new code and they can print you out the mixing code hope that helps some josh

Bob:
I have a spray out done by the factory on a 70 SS......(it matches the 70 chev color chip very well even with both 35 years old).

Bob, contact the Aurora Policeman who has the forest green deuce - his color match looked spot-on!

If this helps..my Sisters uncles brothers nephew shows the original GM production formula for #48 Forest Green Metallic was:
Dupont code #927-99728
Lucite stock was #5116L
Fisher code was #3970

The Aurora policeman told me at vettfest that they tweaked it a little. I liked it. Thought it was the prettiest fg deuce I'd ever seen. I still like it's DAY 2 look. Right Sam?
