Yes, I would give them a call, even though they may not have the color listed on their website.
 The 1980 LTD 4/6 hood color was called "Glacier Green" by Kawasaki.
 I would bet that it was the exact same paint that would have been used by one of the car manufacturers (GM, Ford, Chrysler ??) in the 1960's or 70's.....trying to figure out which one would be the key. :-\

Don't need to call me, just pm me!  This is Dennis from Vintage Paint.

Currently, you are correct, I only have the 78-79 Blue.

I have had requests for the 80 blue and the glacier green, but have never had anyone send me a sample to match to.

I will need a sample to create the color.  Also a warning.  Currently I am up to my neck in shipping orders, doing some renovation of my shop, building a paint booth, oh, and this pesky job thing.  So, please don't expect results on new colors tomorrow.  But we will get to them! 

Thanks for the kind words too.

A piece about 3 inches square is enough.  Preferably not a whole hood unless you are in the Fargo ND area.

OK, so then my question is whether or not you have a color for the TOC sleds.
