I'm not entirely sure what the color of my '55 packard 400 is. It's it a faded citrine? Some other color? I have the pic registered on the site under kbradley77.

If you look in the Literature and Manuals section of this site, you'll find the paint chip reference charts. Here's one of them: Packard Paint Chip

As Packard Illiterati mentioned, If present match the paint code on the door tag to the paint charts and assuming the paint is original you can get a reasonable approximation of how it left the factory. The individual paint charts on site are in better condition so check those out. Some of the cars may not have had that info stamped. If not, a chart of combinations available and chips are also in the 55 dealer showroom album on site. If the trim code is available, most of the upholstery information can also be found in the 55 dealer showroom album.

So, i finally got to check for the info on the car and found that it IS a single tone, Citrine (p) with # 87 interior code (black, white leather, yellow stripe. Thanks for your help.
