I thought I saw a post a long time ago about mid '70's corvette flame red is the same as the 8000 series orange?  A friend in the local classic car club is trying to sell some extra, but I don't know if it is close to the right color or not and my eyes aren't good enought to catch any difference.  I tried to look it up through search, but it times out on me.  Maybe someone will know the answer? 
 
If by chance you know of a wheel paint that stands up to penpack I would be interested in hearing about that also..Thanks for the help.  Jim

I used "Big Bad Orange" to paint my 8070. That's the colour used on the General Lee. I think it's a perfect match. This colour is on the shelf at the auto parts store and I don't have to worry about some teenagers mixing abilities.I know this doesn't answer your question , sorry.
