    Just got a 68 A100 pickup. The fender tag is in place. How do I find out what the original (colors) of this vehicle were? TKS!

    If you can post the Vin number and other numbers from the tag, I'm sure someone on here can probably figure it out...

    I'm sure one of the Dodge guys on here will jump in and let you know.

    Here is an old thread where someone was looking for a paint color for a 68 Dodge. Maybe it might be useful for you? The second link by Rod has a paint listing for 68 Dodges.

    you might look where the windshield rubber fits on the pinch weld of the body. that's where I found my original color of interior. already had the original paint (outside) when I got mine. they only had about 5 colors to start with. not many body shops went to the trouble of pulling the windshields out to do a color change.
