    The v-6 emblem has four colors ---

    gold
    orange
    white
    black

    Does anyone know what those color codes are or the 'official' color names are?

    I can probably figure out the black and white, the gold looks to be metallic, and the orange looks to be, well, orange.

    Thanks

    I thought the Testor's red was too red, not as orange as the original. I mixed a bottle of Testors red and yellow to get a reddish orange that seems closer to original than just the red....
