Oxford Maroon-used in1948,49 and 1950.Paint #375 and 382 in 1948.Dupont Duco #202-39638-MM- Mixing formula 31 Oz. 246-033-MM medium maroon 1/16 Oz. black 1 Oz. 202-082 metallic base Sure those colors are no longer available. 1947 Oxford Maroon had a different mixing formula. Very difficult color to duplicate> I have seen many attemps but few accurate.When done right its a great color.Never duplicates well in enamels. _________________________ Chevgene
