trying to find a good paint match.

I am building a 1976 winnabago cheftain. anybody know what colors would be the best match to the white and the brown for this?

We had a Winnebago and if I remember correctly, a basic bright white would be correct. The big W on the side was more of a mustard brown or gold color. Keep in mind that we kept ours outside and it tended to fade some over time.

Friends of the family had a newer one and their W was green but it was smaller than ours so that may have had something to do with it. I would do some research and see if the colors were different for the different lengths or models (Brave, Indian & Chieftain).

Thanks Mike I've been looking around but haven't found any paint colors for the w and the stripe that runs down the side.

I suggest Tamiya gold leaf for the W.

Check with Dave Dodge at Model Car World he may have the color chips for them.
