I took John Twist's color code list to my local supplier and he was able to
match the Dupont number John listed (DuPont # 5321DH).
I had him mix up a quart of DuPont Centari Acrylic Enamel. Label on can shows
this formula is: 5321A, 1971 Ford Dark Red, code M-3426 (which I assume is
Ford's color code).
John's chart also shows: Ditzler DQE 50782Y, SW J 3126-2, ACME AC 419
Hope this helps
