Hi everyone. I'm looking for the Shell Oil paint codes for a friend of mine. He needs the code for the red and yellow. Appreciate any infor you can come up with. Thanks!

These codes are for DuPont Centari acrylic enamel but will cross with different brands. Red 60807A Yellow 6561A

Thanks Rich. I'll let my buddy know. Much appreciated. Paul

Gasboy,
Shell red is mostly the same over time.
However, they have had at least three yellows. In addition to Rich's numbers check these out for pre 1950 stuff.
PPG# 81652 Fleet Yellow
PPG# 71660 Fleet Red
Sikkens Solid #418A1 Tan
If your friend is using a decal he may want to have the paint matched to the decal.
