Excellent! Thank you very very much all especially Alan and Chryco for the formula. That deep violet/purple looks almost good enough to eat😂😊

I actually disagree with Burdar on this one , we did a custom mix from memory for my friends GTX , when I pulled apart my chall to restore it there was some original paint behind the brake supprt plate on the firewall , it was virtually identical to the mix we had , we had spryed out 8 mixes from large paint suppliers & none of those were close , the problem is on a computer it is hard to reproduce the color , the camera taking the picture , lighting & the monitor you are using can alter the color
My chall is repainted with the same mix we used on my friends GTX , it is a dark & rich purple  :bigthumb:

I think some of the problem is the original paint is one of those colors that was susceptible to fading being a metallic so the key is finding a spot inside or underneath that has not seen sun or the elements.

Yup: I used a piece of the dutchman panel that was covered by the trunk and weatherstrip to match this one. That was back in the days of single stage Centari though and they matched it dead on. You can't tell by photos on the internet.
