Does anybody know where to find a list of original paint colors for a '64 Ford F-series?

Most auto paint suppliers, carry books like PPG going back past your year your asking, I would stop by one of them.
When I was getting my 65 painted; I stop by a paint dealer, and they show me the color's. It was really helpful to see and understand the different shades of white, i.e white verses wimbledon white.
Hope this helps.

There are vendors who sell actual paint color chip sheets on eBay. You can get the coimplete set of Ford truck colors for around $10.

Also the colors were listed in the dealer sales brochures for the trucks. They are also available on eBay for $10-15.

Or you can look them up on line at: www.autocolorlibrary.com

Awesome! thanks guys! I'm goin' with Wimbledon White on Viking Blue with the white over the back and top of the cab only. Should look pretty sweet. The truck was Viking Blue originally. I can't wait to get the rest of the truck over here! It's gonna be pretty rad lifted with a 390 and all redone and tricked out! =D
