I have used " Dr. Color Chip" to touch up some very minor chips on my 2011 Audi A4. The touch-up was a perfect paint match, so much better than the factory touch up paint that can be purchased at the dealer. The Audi paint was so bad that I threw the touch up pens away.

But, does anyone have feedback if "Dr. Color Chip" can match 40+ year old paint codes? Their web site displays the paint code for my '70/4 (L11E), so I suppose they can formulate the mix. Although the car was painted its' original color eight years past and has been extremely pampered, I still wonder if the color formula can be produced to a perfect match. Unfortunately, after eight years, I finally got my first paint chip, on the rear deck lid no less.

Paul, i got a spray can of L21E paint for my 01/70 4 from Eastwood. It was a good match for touchup on some unfaded areas under fuel tank, behind rockers, and around brake master mount. Harder to match areas that have sun fading....

I met them. Hot August Nights in Reno. He matched the paint on my '84 Carrera - Chiffon White very nicely.

(Sounds like the first sentence to a Mickey Spillane Mystery Book. )

you just call 'em up & spec the year- code/color you want - assuming you already know it (my case - i had the old paint can label with PPG code)

- there are sites where you can find old old codes if needed,

and a few suppliers may still have old old chip books stashed away (or check your local community college body shop - they often have this stuff they got as donations)
