How to Find Your 1962 AMC's Color Code

AMC paint codes are hidden on top of the radiator support; engine grease and oil often make them impossible to read. Typical format is BS/GBS; only the BS portion is the color code. It can also appear as QBS, PBS, TBS, etc. The first letter is the Year Code, which makes color codes confusing. BS corresponds to Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat. The G in GBS is not part of the color code. Lately AMC lists codes as BS. AMC has many two tone combos on some cars and often omitted the secondary color information.

1962 AMC Background Info

The 1962 AMC Vibe

1962 was the year George Romney's "dinosaur slayers" truly hit their stride. Whether you were steering a Rambler Classic, a high-trim Ambassador, or the compact American, AMC was busy proving that you didn't need ten feet of tailfin to have style. Our database shows a staggering 15 colors for this year-a testament to a time when AMC wasn't afraid to get a little experimental. They seemed particularly obsessed with the garden, giving us a trio of rosy hues like Algiers Rose Copper Poly, Jasmine Rose, and Festival Rose. It was a sophisticated palette that sat somewhere between "Space Age" and "Country Club," draped over bodies that were built to last longer than the hairstyles of the era.

Paint Health Check

Since we're firmly in the Single Stage Era, your 1962 AMC left the factory without a drop of clear coat. Back then, the color and the protection were brewed into one thick, solvent-heavy layer. The good news? You've got plenty of "meat" on the bone to work with. The bad news? That paint is a living, breathing thing that hates the sun. If your Glen Cove Green or Corsican Gold Poly looks like it's been dusted with flour, you're looking at oxidation. Over sixty years, UV rays have chewed through the binders in the paint, leaving a chalky, dead residue on the surface. If you ignore it, the paint eventually "starves," turns brittle, and gives up the ghost entirely.

Restoration Tip

Here is the golden rule for 1962: It needs wax or it dies. Because there's no clear coat to hide behind, the pigment is directly exposed to the elements. If you're dealing with heavy fading, you'll need to "exfoliate" that dead, chalky layer with a light rubbing compound to find the fresh color hiding underneath. But don't stop there. Once you've brought back the shine of that Algiers Rose, you must seal it. A high-quality carnauba wax or a period-correct sealant acts as a sacrificial barrier. Think of it as sunscreen for your Rambler-if you aren't reapplying it regularly, the sun will start eating your paint all over again.
