I suggest you get your hands on a GM Paint Chip Chart for 67 if you haven't already done so. Here is some information I found on-line for a 67 Chevelle that was painted Emerald Turquoise...looks like three different choices.

      Paint Code/Name          Lucite        Rinshed-Mason               Ditzler

K ~ Emerald Turquoise        4818L             A-1903                    43661


Can you post a pic of the Trim Tag? I believe the paint code should be KK since it was a standard color.

Welcome to the site...

Look at this chart. You can get your paint mixed.

Same thing Joey...Daniels link references Ditzler 43661. Maybe you can get all three samples made up and see which one works best for you.

Any jobber can mix your paint. They want the paint manufacturer paint code, not the one on the trim tag. All manufacturer's colors will not be dead on to the original lacquer. The tints, especially the metallics, are not the same as they were on a lacquer system.  If you are shooting Sikkens or another just call the tech line and ask for a lab match. It's done all the time. Having a sample is even better. If you are not happy with the match you will have to tweak it.
