Ok guys, I know that many of you have painted a pump in Gilmore colors before, how about a little help here.
I need a paint code for the colors. I don't have a decal or globe yet to just have the painter match, and I know that some of you have tried different codes until you got one you really liked.
I have an original quart can that has a yellow color on it. But, my recollection is that the color used by many is more of a cream color than the yellow? Any help would be appreciated!

Doc:

My 'Master' list doesn't even show Gilmore colors! However, it does list some 'Creams'. Maybe one of these is close to what you need. If so, let me know and I will add it to the list for future inquires. All are PPG Ditzler color codes from 1960. Check with your counterman at the paint store to make sure that the numbers are still good.

Chevron Creme - 80664
Pennzoil Cream - 81241
Richfield NY Creamy Yellow - 80808

Hope this helps!

Later.

Jim
