PAINT CODE FOR RIMS

Hi,
I have scoured previous posts for paint codes but couldn't find
a code for the OE light cream (Ivory?) rim paint on my '71.
Some members have posted pics of their trucks with the
this color. My truck is Boxwood Green with Wimbledon White
cab top. The rims are quite faded and a bit rusty so I plan
to have them media blasted and painted as close to OE color
as possible. any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Happy March 27th everyone.
Carl

Color code M = 1964/72 (and later) Wimbledon White (which is an off white).

Color code C = 1964/72 Pure White.

These are, AFAIK, the only shades of white that were offered for Bumpsides.

Note: 1961/63 Color code M is Corinthian White, not the same as Pure or Wimbledon White.

Paint Code 4 Rims

Thanks for helping me with this......My rims are now sand or cream color
and must have been re-painted at some time.
After looking at some members pics white or off-white will definately
compliment the body colors of Wimbledon white on Boxwood green.
My paint supplier has those same codes.
