I believe the name of the color is wild strawberry metallic. I think it’s an actual Ford paint. Definitely a metallic as the name indicates. |

The metallic wasn't super obvious, even in the street versions, because it was a three-layer paint incorporating a tinted clear coat on top if I recall correctly. It was there, but it wasn't in your face. A truly beautiful color in person. Note that this image is a little dark, it's in the shade.

Sorry about that, didn't realize you were that far away.
I build a lot of Petty cars, so I get the automotive paint store to mix me up some blue and the put it in an aroesal can. Don't know if that's an option for you or not. |

I know that it exists overhere, sure . But not in my area, and they don't ship easily ... |
