Alright, the car has been prepped and is awaiting paint at a shop, but I am having trouble deciding on a color. The car was originally a cherry red - although it was repainted yellow before I was born. Now I want to go back to a deep, rich red (probably another cherry red - just something without a lot of orange or purple in it) and I want it to look alright with the chrome. Are there any paints or color codes from stock cars you would recommend? I was thinking maybe PPG cherry red or possibly the cherry red from a ford mustang. Anyone else have any suggestions for a nice red?

For this car:



side note: If the original color wasn't red I would probably go with BRG

The Ford Maroon/red is pretty hott...........Saw it on a Nigavigator. If you know anyone @ a body shop they usually have books with samples of all the current stuff out. Oh and one more thing.

Piss
Poor
Gloss


Dupont or Sikens if you are trying to do anything nice
