Yeah, the vinyard green is quite dark and doesn't show well in the photo.
The numbers on the chips are DuPont I think . I'll have to check on that. If you show that number to a paint supply guy, he will know what brand it is. I love the Rouge Iris. I have seen several of those on 289's, and it is absolutely my favorite color for a 289. I can't find any reference to an original 427 car being rouge iris or marroon, even though the color is shown on the paint chips. Jim
