1982 Camaro FACTORY red color?

Can anyone give me a color code, or a link or direction in which I could find a can of paint that matches this, needing to touch up front bumper and a few small spots on the car I have.


Thank you!

If you have your color code,you might checkout Dupli-Color Perfect Match sprays at your local Pep Boys or Advance Auto.

Just a thought...............

I don't think your 82 is base/clear coat paint.

My 84 is also that same red. Most of the dupicolor touch up
paint at the auto stores is bb/cc stuff requiring u to buy both the base and clear.

I just went to the hobby store and bought me a tiny jar of
Testor enamel hobby paint in red.
Matched my car color perfect and cost $2 bucks..........

Re: 1982 Camaro FACTORY red color?

would it be enough to do the entire nose of the car, it's the only bad place in it, I didn't want to rattle can it with some different color and it not match up you know? I'm not sure if it's clear coated or not i just know it's the original paint... Which looks pretty decent after a wax, but the front end is just cracked and needs redone
