Default 72 exterior color

I have a 72 with an original black interior. The exterior paint is not the original color. Can someone tell me the original colors that went with
black interiors. Thanks for the help.

Locate the trim tag just inside the drivers side door pillar. There will be a paint code that you can look up or we can tell you what it is.

Good luck,
Dino
