Does anyone know the paint code for the red on the FFR - HR '33?

39698

It's written in several places that Carl's Collision used the new Sherwin-Williams paints on the car, but I'm not sure if that's the Raging Metallic Red or the Bail Bond Red. I'm thinking it might be the Raging Metallic, but want confirmation.

We saw the car in the FFR booth at SEMA and the boss says I can build one, as long as it's that same color.


Thanks

It is NOT the Bail Bond Red as that color is not metallic.

I chose a current Mazda red for my build. Might be worth visiting a dealer in your area. I think it is close to the FFR car but I guess you need to see it for yourself.

IIRC that was Tony Z's car so you might ask him directly. It was a nice hue.

Thanks 68GT500MAN, I wasn't sure if it was metallic or not. Then I am betting thats the Raging Metallic Red on the car. Although when I asked in the booth (forget who I talked to though) they said it was a Candy Apple Red.

Barrel, that's a beautiful car. I have looked at car lots before, and I do like the Mazda red.
