Default Chevy orange paint code?
Micky, Kurt, and RatPack,
I was at our local restoration shop today and he had collected about five different paint samples all called Chevy Engine Orange. Out of the bunch, the POR-15 was much more red than the others. The colors of the others were between the POR-15 and the more yellow "Mopar Hemi" orange.

Do any of you have a color code that you believe is the closest to the original Chevy Orange? Is it the POR-15 color? If not, what is the code for the DuPont Centari paint?

Any help is appreciated, the shop is restoring a 1967 big block Camaro and he wants to get it right..

Thanks in advance!
-Sam
