Common Color

When my dad ordered his '66, he ordered a special color that is not stamped on the VIN tag on the door. Also on the dealer invoice it shows special order paint.
I do believe the color to be Antique Bronze Poly.
Does anyone else have a truck this color?
I hope to have the truck paint the same color sometime this year and the rims painted the original Wimbledon White.

Antique Bronze was a color used on passenger cars in 1966, The cars VIN plate color code is = P

There's no such thing as Poly...all Fords of this vintage used Duco enamel paint.

Wimbleton White color code = M

The paint chart I have is from Martin Senour Paints. I guess that explains the Poly.
