Thank GOD for miracles.

Now when Chevy orange is gone the world will be one step closer to a livable planet.

Autobody paint shops can mix the Hemi Orange paint via formula from paint 'chip' code and put it into rattle cans or quarts or gallons for gun spray. Even here in California. This doesn't seem to be a Big Deal? shruggy

I bet Frank Baldason has the correct paint. How many people know that wedge engine orange is different than Hemi orange? And there are different shades of Hemi orange.

iagree

The last two engines I've done I had the local paint supply shop mix it for me and just sprayed it on with a trim gun.

That's the stuff Pittsburgh, needs to be thinned down to run through a gun, covers in one coat, I get 4-5 engines out of 1 can and shelf life is years after you open

I always thought the race hemi orange was too close to chevy orange. Last 3 engines got dupli color ceramic chrysler red. Its orange with more red in it. IMO its a very nice color with better contrast to black covers and other accessories.

I believe Mopar used the 1963/64 max Wedge Orange as the 1965 and 1968 Race hemi orange shruggy
the 1966 to 1971 Street Hemi orange has the flake in it, not the Race Hemi paint tsk
