Paint code?

I just got a 79 and decoded the vin, it's a conventional cab, 5.7L, 4bbl, 1/2 ton hailing from Fremont... But no paint code in the vin?

The carpet was not in the truck and it looks to be a gloss black in the cab and everywhere else. The exterior was rattle canned flat black. I'd like to to do a resto mod kinda thing but I haven't seen where the interior option code or paint codes are...

Any ideas?

Re: Paint code?

The VIN won't have color code in it. Your SPID sheet will if you still have it.

If it is black, The color is Midnight Black.

My Truck is Midnight Black, so if you get yours painted that color it will look a lot like this.

That's pretty... The black trucks came with the red interior too right?
