Anyone have the MKIV Red paint code/name?

Hope to get it in the paint shop in the next month or two. Figure I better have the paint code figured out.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks! I figured it probably was, but I've looked at so many pictures and soom like the above look like it, while others seem a bit brighter...probably just lighting and/or different cameras.

By the way, do you know what the white is? Is it Wimbledon white? Guessing so.

Brent,

The white could be Wimbledon or it could be "Pace Car White" that was used on the 1965 (1964.5) Mustangs that were the Indianapolis pace cars and replicas. It is slightly different from Wimbledon.
