I've run into this issue before but somehow always managed to land on my feet. This time may be different...
I have one of the early Jensen built P1800 and the paint code is Volvo Red 70. The Lutice equivalent is (246) 96062-H and Dulux lists it as (93) 96062-H.
The issue is that paint shops do not recognize these codes. I could technically take the driver's door off since it's being replaced and have them scan the interior. But there is a risk that the paint has weathered.
Anyone have any luck sourcing paint for the older cars ? VP-Autoparts does not have a sample for red 70, they have later, brighter colors but not this one.
