I got mine from them at Don's show outside of Ocala. 11 bucks. But that was years ago. Have you seen the crap they sell at the chain stores? And the price? Of course, that's everywhere, w/ everything ..For $16.00 you should be able to set it next to the engine and should spray it for you.
The main Napa still does that, but doubt they have MA Mopar color charts. They will custom blend, for no extra. When I did my Sat, it was 20 or 25 a can. I'm no Salesman, Bro, Herb's is good ****. Now, do you need a new kitchen? LolI'll buy some now and check it out. You all are probably salesmen that work on commission. The correct colors are getting hard to find. There were some paint stores that would mix it years back. I remember spraying some with a spray gun. Or they could put it in an aerosol container for the buyer.
I think the genuine Mopar paint is over $20 a can now, and in my opinion, the mopar paint in my color is garbage. (Race hemi orange).For $16.00 you should be able to set it next to the engine and should spray it for you.
Mopar sells that stuff nationwide, so I think it has to conform to california rules..... and you can't get any kind of decent paint in california.Put that crap on my 340. It was nowhere near as good as the stuff in the early 90s
yessir, that's the good stuffI have this one, I bought it many years ago but it's still good!
I'm willing to bet, that is Way Beyond the crap they sell now! I've used the newer stuff they make. Ugh Great find there!
There is a difference between OEM Hemi oranges?Neither Herbs nor Bill Hirsch list race hemi orange. Still looking, as i will NOT use mopar spray cans again.
Nothing from por-15 either. Cant say im surprised.
Oh yeah! Mopar used at least four oranges.There is a difference between OEM Hemi oranges?
Oh yeah! Mopar used at least four oranges.
1. Race hemi orange. Very yellowish, used on maxwedge and 64/65 race hemis.
2. 66/67 street hemi orange. A fairly neutral orange, not reddish or yellowish.
3. 68-up "hemi" orange. Quite reddish orange. Used on wedges, hemis, and small blocks.
4. Fram orange, used on aircleaner housings. Slightly different from typical street hemi orange.
Then there are the different brands of paint with slightly different formulas. Heck, half the time you can't tell them from chevrolet orange!
when i contacted Bill Hirsch he said there was a 340 orange that many confuse with hemi orange also..
the spray cans are usually no where close to the proper color.. hell even MP street hemi orange is no where the proper color.. its (when i last used it years ago) was way too pale.
