Thank you
 

your jeep is an 87, right? you will probably have a very hard time finding a vin decoder that works because jeep changed hands so much and mopar didn't start keeping track till the tj era.

and, couple that with yours being not a us spec, i bet you cannot find anything on it.

i tried a few and they all said invalid vin. i had similar issues on my 87 wrangler but at least it would say 87 jeep wrangler, just nothing else


this one at least shows it as a jeep

that one found 87 cherokee but had a picture of a full size cherokee

I found one when I bought the Jeep months ago that decoded the VIN on the dash I do not remember much of it. What I am trying to find out is the color of the Jeep I can find the available colors for that year online but not the code that tells me the one I have and there are two shades of blue that are close to my Jeep I was told that tag on the firewall shows the color code but I do not know which one it is?

In trying to decode the firewall tag I found one site that said my Jeep originally came with a 360 V8... LOL
 
yup, that is old school jeep record keeping, showing the 360 v8. thats the stuff i used to always find for my 87 too.

the door sticker, can you attach a picture? the color code is indeed on there on all vehicles.
 

The are the only tags on the and the jam

its the first one but i cannot read what it says. its not clear enough. there should be some two digit codes and those are the paint codes

All that has worn off so to me the only way would be to get a build sheet and that is not possible?

What are you needing to paint? If you are wanting to repaint the entire jeep either blue should be ok. Repainting a section may or may not work as paints can fade over time. If you can get an aerosol can of each color and paint a piece of metal that should help you determine which is the right color.
 
Maybe you could try calling mopar at their american contact number but i would have a lot more confidence in matching the coloars the way mark said
