Default Paint code question

I am trying to decipher the codes for my pop's '70 vette.
The tag shows TRIM 424, and PAINT 992.
Any help greatly appreciated!

992 is Laguna Gray and 424 is Leather Saddle interior.

Laguna gray, pardon my ignorance of color names, that would be silver?

THe car is currently a custom paint job, a bronze with lighter shading on the bottom of the car, and finding any signs of the original color is hard.

The interior is saddle leather, so it is correct.

Thanks for the quick response!
