After this past month of $30k estimates I have decided to tackle a project myself, my own personal 1972 4X4 F-100 w/600HP 390FE (if she turns out good then I'll shoot my Charger R/T ... )

It is slated for paint this winter and after hanging out on this forum these past few days I think I've got the liquid courage to spray the beast myself. I am very familiar with HVLP and shooting one-step PPG paints and a few candys of House of Kolor on "small" items...IE engine parts. With some practice I think I could pull it off considering the truck is rust free and straight. Great first timer project...

Now my question to the gurus. I am interested in that goldish/metallic tan color GM shot on some of their trucks around 94 to 96. I can research the paint code but I guess my question is...what level of experience does it take to shoot/mix that color? The color does have a little bit of pearl/metalic to it but is this a one-step style paint? I couldn't imagine them going through the process it takes with say...Candy blue from House of Kolor and having to wait for the silver to flash off...etc..etc.

Where should I start on getting this color? PPG?
