Thread: Paint code for Panther Pink

Tweet

Does anyone know the paint code for Panther pink ? I know what your thinking, but this car is going to be for my daughter. I will be using PPG DBU.
Thanks

I don't recognize the name, but if you call the paint dealer with the make model, and name, they should be able to fix you up.

There is also paint code info on the net, so you might even be able to Google the name, along with "paint code", "body codes" or Paint chart" and find it.

It's a Dodge/ plymouth color from the 70s.

This site is devoted to the color....code "FM3"

Excuse me if I am off the subject, but Hotrodpaint knows a lot of things I wished I knew. I checked out the site you list and others and while it is easy to find colors for specific years of cars I have not found a way to search for a range of color. I think that "Panther Pink" might be too hot for me at my age and what I am looking for is a non-metallic maroon Du Pont acrylic single stage a little more red and not as dark at the Ford '47 Pheasant Red, How would I search for that?

Don, If you check with the local paint stores, many of the manufacturers have put together a large selection of color chips, in one booklet, for use as a custom paint resource.

For example Sherwin Williams calls theirs "Muestrario De Color", and R-M calls theirs "Rod & Custom Colors". I know PPG also has one, and I will assume most of the major producers have followed suit.

This gives you an easy way to compare various available shades of pearl and opaque colors.

I believe it is FM3, Chrysler refered to it as Passion.

I stand correted it is panther pink. Cool color.
