Getting ready to paint my 53 Ford. Am looking for Red and Gray paint codes.

Know the paint has changed from original of 50 years ago, but whatever comes close is alright.

Thanks in advance for you assistance. David
 
The Tisco paint often used is vermillion red #TP2822 and the medium gray #M13243. I think you will find the paint sold by New Holland matches these same base colors. If you use Tisco I suggest adding a hardner, and a clear coat if you want it to remain bright on the red.

you will notice the numbers I gave, right off the Tisco cans, are the same as the Ford code numbers. My cans are nearly 4 years old, so maybe Tisco changed the numbers? And of course you know the Tisco paint is made by Van Sickle.
