Answer
Your van is a conversion van- the stripe colors are anybody's guess if the conversion company's paint info tag has been removed- assuming it ever had one. The factory doesn't paint stripes like this. Go to any store that sells professional automotive paint, and they can help you determine the van's basic color. It's what we call guess and by golly on the stripe colors. A close color will have to be found, and tinted to match. Bill
