The 69 MFG code is A4
Dupont number in Enamel is 4979A This color has a green tint to the silver.

If you want a silver without a green tint 67 color is brighter
67 code is A
Dupont 4656

Either should be able to be formulated to Base coat.

DuPont also has a camera that can make it's own formula with a few pics of the paint from their camera.most automotive paint supply Co. has the camera.if you have a part of the car that has a good clean spot you can get it close to original.

cool thanks guys, it's a color change so that green tint color sounds good since car was green to start with.
