Hmmm, doesn't look like the early chrysler panther pink,  I had a test plate made with 1970 chrysler panther pink and it looks different than that picture.  If you could get a paint code I'd really appreciate it.

Some bodyshops can/will custom mix you car paint if you ask really nicely. I've done it before.

I had one paint guy look at a sample of the colour I want and for some reason he didn't think he could duplicate it.  Maybe I need to check some other body shops.

I've found that independent shops are a lot more likely to try, than 'chain' shops. If that helps at all.

I'll keep that in mind, that might have something to do with it.
