Anybody have any pics of these two colors?
Royal Maroon (Code B)
versus
Candyapple Red (Code T)

the http://autocolorlibrary.com/ website has a scan of the paint chips.
however there's likely some slight inaccuracy going from a little paint chip
scanned into computer and viewed on your monitor. but it should give a
reasonable indication of the colors.

candy red looks awesome on classics.

Sorry, I forgot to say that I have already been there but was really interested in seeing the difference of the two on a Bronco...

my truck is factory ford 1966 candyapple red original color. hope this helps. the color chips show candyapple as this darker maroon like color and they are wrong.

Man, are you sure that isn't Signal Flare or Poppy Red?
Did you choose a '66 Mustang red?

i am 100% sure its ford 1966 candyapple red!

I believe you, I remember seeing a couple of Mustangs that color.
When you said "my truck is factory ford 1966 candyapple red original color"
I thought you meant it was an original candyapple red '66, not repainted.

sorry for the confusion. I just did arepaint last spring. My truck is 71 and I had a picture taken with one of those special paint camera's that determined the color and it was ford candyapple red. That made that color for a ton of years I just choose 1966. The color is great very true red. I will try to post a picture of it out of the sun its darker red then.
