    I’m looking for the color for code 1CS. The code came off a 79 cj5 vin tag but it’s not in the 79 FSM.

    The jeep is painted silver and it looks original yet the FSM only lists one silver (9J as Arrowhead Silver Metallic), it also states there are only two digits that signifies a paint code.

    Chuck I have found these upholstery/trim codes pertaining to the SA CJ.
    T-91CC
    T-91CS
    T-91CE
    all are for black perforated vinyl and are SA model specific.
    see any relationship between the code on the tag and these numbers ?
    that T-91SC looks very much like the 1CS you are asking about
    the CC on the tag also matchs the CC in T-91CC
    wish there was a better pic of the tag

    Jim, it wasn’t a good pic but that’s all he gave me. I’m thinking it is a SA and as I write this Scott (Ducks-bass n jeeps) is checking out the jeep for me this morning, I should get a call from him soon. I also will have the owner of the SA in this thread check his vin

    Just received a call from Scott, this is the rest of the code 8C 1CS CC

    Edit: this code is on the second line or middle line.

    :?
    8C = Quick Silver Met

    the other numbers have to be seat/uphol trim codes IMO

    The story goes that the SA was painted Quick Silver then because it was a Renegade they renamed the paint Arrowhead Silver. Don’t know if that makes any sense but that was what I was told by the owner of the SA in this thread.

    Edit: When I mentioned the SA and owner in this thread I meant the Intro & garage pics thread. Sorry for the confusion that may have caused.
