I'm trying to look for the standard colour code for a Datsun B310 1980 sunny ( Yellow )... Does anyone know where i can find this out ?

* code in the engine bay is gone *

Yes. Find a Sunny the same color and ask the owner to let you look at the color code.

Or, some paint shops will look up the 1980 Nissan color codes from you and you pick the one that matches.

yeah all paint shops have the colours cataloged, if not find a better paint shop

Should be on your build plate, colour CLR XXX

Yeah just hard a look .. no luck.
I might just go look at colours in that year , like you guys said.

Thanks

this may help u, i have the same problem my paint code is on a sticker,my sticker is there but has worn off totally.

I'd recommend trying VG Auto paints at Girraween. A friend walked in there asking for a ford colour, I think it was Z on the build plate of the Laser & they were able to look it up & give him the correct silver. They should be able to look up any Nissan colour for you. The problem starts when there are 2 different colours like there is for biege. You might have a similar paint supplier near where you work.
