Early Barracuda emblem colors
Can't find anything about this in the archives, so I will post. I am looking to determine the correct colors for the painted blue and red in the center of the chrome moulding below the rear window of the early Barracudas, and the same colors show up on the small emblems in the center of the front turn signals that I currently have apart. My rear window original piece has no paint left at all. The turn signals still have the paint, but is faded, also, I have two original steering wheel emblems, one is the optional woodgrain, and the other the standard wheel, both with good color. The blue and the red are darker on the steering wheel emblems, and am wondering if the original red and blue painted emblems were darker like the wheel. Anybody else researched this? Any recommendations for a paint color? I have a lot of model paints and several blues and reds, but hard to tell what the original color was.
