I'm restoring my 1972 Sebring Plus and need help to identify the correct "silver" paint that goes on the lower body panels below the side molding trim as well as the front and rear valance panels. Does anyone know the correct paint for this application?

Paul,
The paint below the trim is called Argent Silver. Here is a previous post discussing this:

Here is a link to a color chart that shows the code for the paint. Its down near the bottom of the page under Exterior Trim Colors:

Hope this helps,

Scott,
Thanks for your help. I'm going to investigate to see if the paint code is still active. I appreciate you taking the time to research this topic.

Here is a link to the PPG color chart. Looks like the Argent Silver code is DX-8555.
