Paint Code for Purple Horn?

Post by 72GY9Runner » Tue Apr 18, 2006 5:09 pm

Hey all!
It's been a bit since I posted here, and since the last post most of the body work is finished on my Runner. I'm starting to refinish the smaller components, and I'm having trouble getting paint mixed up to respray the "beep beep" horn. Being in Canada and having to pay shipping/brokerage/duty, the $38US a pint that Year One wants is ridiculous. Does anyone have a paint code for this color in any brand of paint (but preferably PPG or Dupont) that I can take to my paint supplier?

Thanks again,

Dave

Paddock sells the black and purple for the different year RR horns-I think it's OEM brand (rattle cans), but I'm not sure. It's probably aroudn that $40 range, too, but I don't know about shipping.

Roger Gibson sells correct color horn paint for around $30/pint. Be careful, some horn paints out there are not the correct color....not sure about totally auto's stuff.
Frank Badalson (Gibson's sales guy) can be reached at sixpackfrank@aol.com
