Looking for GM Paint code 40

I'm restarting the restoration process on my 1976 gmc sprint, so I'm trying to find out the original equipment in the car.

I went and took down my vin, found out the car had a 2bbl 350 in it originally and the paint was a solid color 40, (... 40L 40U ...) But I can't find what paint color that is anywhere. All the paint codes I've found are for 72 or newer

Can anybody help. :dunno:

acording to this site 1976 GMC Sprint code 40 is lime poly, check out this site it has all the years you want

I heard it was lime green metallic; guess not OR maybe lime poly is the same color.

btw That is an awsome site for online paint chips, thanks a lot
