Default paint color code

The wifes 71 is in need of a little touch up paint. Where would I find the color code number for her car. Also on her interior we planned on replacing most everything, but to me blue is blue. Is there a code for the interior or does that number match the exterior code?

Thanks

There should be a tag in the drivers door jamb near the front. There will be some codes on it. Check them against this listing of exterior and interior codes. Then you can find the matching original Ditzler (PPG) code in the paint chip link on the same page. http://www.71corvette.com/colors.html
