The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Decoding paint and trim codes?

Now that I've located the "cowl" tag (which, of course, isn't on the cowl at all) I've got trim and paint codes that I need to decipher for my '64 C-10:

TRIM = PPO Z62AA
PAINT = 540AD

I've learned that the paint code was for two-tone turquoise and the "other" color was ivory. Where was the ivory paint at on the truck? (The truck is now in various stages of primer, rust, and donor parts, making it difficult at best to tell what it looked like originally.)

Anyone know what the trim code means? I did a lot of Googling and couldn't come up with anything even remotely close to useful. Sorry if this is a blatantly stupid question with an obvious answer.

Thanks,
Brent

Lots of great info on "our" trucks.

I read virtually every page on that site a couple days ago and didn't see anything about the trim codes. :confused:

Z62AA means it was a Custom Cab, Ivory for the top color & stripe between moldings. 540 is turquoise/ivory. Go to Jim Carters website, www.oldchevytrucks.com for more info. Brian
