How to Find Your 1964 C10 Paint Code
Check the firewall or door jamb trim tag
On a 1964 Chevy C10, the paint code is typically stamped on a trim tag riveted to the firewall or found on a sticker inside the driver-side door jamb. The code on the tag corresponds directly to the WA code in the table above. If your tag is missing or unreadable, UreChem can formulate a match from a clean paint sample taken from an undamaged area of the truck.
About the 1964 C10 Color Palette
The 1964 Chevy C10 stands as a cornerstone of classic American truck design, marking the beginning of the second-generation C/K series with a fresh, more refined look. This model year introduced a sleeker windshield, updated grille, and smoother body lines — giving it a more modern appearance while keeping the rugged spirit of previous years. But it wasn't just the bodywork that made this truck pop: Chevrolet offered a range of eye-catching paint colors that added personality and style.
Among the available factory colors were standout shades like Cardinal Red, Ocean Green, and Bombay Ivory, each bringing its own charm to the C10's curvy steel panels. Two-tone combinations were also popular — especially on fleetside models — where contrasting roofs and lower body panels added extra visual flair. Today, restoring a '64 C10 to its original color code is a badge of honor among collectors.
