Looking ti see if anyone knows the paint code for the 68 Barracuda Dart Race Hemi engine color code. So I can have my paint store mix me up some. Thanks

I was thinking it was the same as Street Hemi Orange then. But I will have to look that up to refresh my memory.

The problem is that the tints are different now and makes the new color wrong or off for the correct color.

Race hemi orange is much lighter than street hemi orange. Like SportF said, there is most definitely a difference.

I had some original parts that original paint We started with a remake of the original paint code (58 to 67 Omaha orange industrial Dodge) that was reformulated and added tint to get the correct shade.

This is a photo of the Race Hemi Orange I had the local PPG dealer mix me up from a panel I freshly painted from a can of Mopar Race Hemi Orange. They mixed it with there top Industrial formula. Nothing touches this after it dries. It matched exactly with the old Mopar rattle can color.
