Paint Code - Ford Forums

OK...92 Model Fairlane Ghia NC..the paint code is "DV". What is the name of this colour code. I rang Ford and they had nothing on their microfiche. This is an orange colour that I think the taxis used back in that year and a few after that. It is factory paint but I cant get the name of the colour. Any answers??

must have been a special order for taxis have never heard of it?

Yeah its a tough one. Although this car isnt/wasnt a taxi, it just "looks" like the colour that they used to run round in. Of course he can just paint match it, but he wants to know the colour so he can look up the different tinters to use.

Vermillion is the paint name...Jubilee Ford here in Sydney sold the car back in 92/93 and apparently it was 1 of 4 ONLY painted in this colour. This is Vermillion - not Vermillion Fire as on XYs etc...its a slightly bland orange compared to the Vermillion Fire.

Thanks 61sg for your interest!

Well not that it matters now but I had a quick look on the computer at work and the paint code DV came up as tip top red which is a orangey red colour.

Tip Top Red was the other paint name he thought it was as well.
