paint codes are a 3 digit number. On the radiotar cross member... you should see a bunch of a numbers and then a 3 digit sequence.

This works at least up until 1991:

Your 1994 should be somewhat similar.

Also, try this:

Match up the color and see if you can find a matching number on the data plate.
