Styling Paint!

[aliandtheband]

I'll re-spray my B in the next few weeks, so my B main/original color is red (the car was sprayed before with many different shades of reds), and I was wondering how many shades of red is there for the B? 1? 2? and what's their code numbers! is there any name (example :my Chevrolet red color is called fire red)

I was also looking for the paint code, but never found it, where should I look? checked all the places and I can't find anything!

There might be a sticker on the inside of the tonneau lid. Mine's Rosso Speed B/B 168/F :devil: There's also Rosso Corsa, I believe, but not clear on the difference..

on www.fiatbarchetta.com under 'buyers guide, FAQ, Pricing, reviews' then 'pick your favorite colour'

it says:

According to the standard Fiat colorchart, color #168 is in fact 'Rosso Speed'!
'Rosso Corsa' is color #140 and hasn't been used for years. (it contains a bit more orange)

Hope this helps.

Oh Yes!

Anyone have a Rosso Corsa B? I wonder when and why they changed to Speed.. either way, red looks pretty good!

Pardon me, I'm a bit slow, couldn't get it right!
The color code/number is 168, right?
The name?
Bcause I found today written on my car Rosso Corsa!?
Not Rosso speed?!

Why not repaint to some custom red color. there are plenty of nice red colors. just store paint receipt if you will later need to fix something.

Nice idea, but my target was to get my B to it's original shape, if you've seen my B before all the work I've done to it, you know why I wanna do that!

So the original paint is important for me!
