Try the site below. I have an '85 that is the "Bronze Beige Metallic" code LH8U. It is kind of a medium brown, not beige at all. The darker brown is "Merian Brown" code LA8A. It was described to me by Chris Jordan as "UPS Brown". I ordered some of the brush in a bottle and the spray can variant. Excellent match. Not cheap, but worth it. It'll will be delivered right to your door. Check your paint code if you are not sure. Under the dash somewhere?

I am looking for a good resource for the touchup paint on my Westy. Have "Googled" on the net but found much more technical auto painting info than I care to decipher...just want a can or small tube of the touch-up paint ...like the kind sold at auto stores or WallyWorld.... My van was made in 10/84 and is the dark brown metallic paint... Any tips out there?
