Cordoba gray
Does anyone have a current paint code for 1935 cordoba gray or 36 cordoba tan. I prefer which ever is less brown if there is a difference. Thanks, Art

Re: Cordoba gray
I shoot a lot of Centari 1934 Ford Cordoba Grey Centari.
I bought several cases when they informed me that they were stopping production in December. Here is the paint code and formula. It is Fleet Color # 5203A |

Re: Cordoba gray
I had someone suggest TCP Global. Maybe one of the the more experienced 35-36 restorers here will suggest a formulation. Michael Driskell suggested that if you wanted a better quality paint than TCP Global, order the smallest amount of the paint you want from them and take it to a Dupont or PPG jobber and have them mix you the paint.

Re: Cordoba gray
Does anybody have pictures of a car or truck painted in Cordoba tan or Cordoba gray? How about either of the Vinyard greens? Thanks, Art

Re: Cordoba gray
I was looking at the cordoba tan when I was painting my 35, but wanted something a bit lighter. I picked a tan from the 36 paint code sheet and went to my local paint store. they were able to get close with a single stage urethane that I liked. check my avatar.

Re: Cordoba gray
Pete, I thought that color was Desert Tan, it sure looks like the chips. If I am wrong then I don't want it. I was hoping the Cordoba was more gray. Thanks for the picture. Art
