69 Hurst Olds Question

[Markalister]

Hey everybody,

I am currently building an AMT '69 Hurst Olds.  I've seen some impressive builds on here so I know somebody has the answer.  I know the engine needs to be painted red.  My question is what shade of red paint is the closest match.  I would prefer Testors or MM brush enamels as that is what is readily available to me.  Thanks.

I would go with testors Model Master  Chrysler red it's close .

Thanks so much fellow Canuck.  I do believe I have a bottle or 2 of that in the stash from when I stocked up at the semi-local hobby shop.  He decided to stop selling MM paints because he felt having to up the price to $5 CDN/bottle was too much and no one would buy it.  Oh well - his loss. 

Do you have a decent hobby shop in Kamloops?
