Having been burnt in the past with poor mixing and not quite right colours, After a bit of help to make sure the paint I buy is the correct '1970 Hot orange' paint code J for my escort.
Any help from the professionals appreciated.
Also need to get the concensus on this small detail. The triple coachline available on the mexico and RS2000 mk 1escorts how does it end?

Maybe this was an international difference? Ie UK to Aussie?

That car on type2 has most likely been restored, if you like the way it is go with it... I had the triple stripe on my gold Mex replica when those pinstripes could be bought at auto shop . Anyway I had mine done with a straight cut down 1in from the back .

yeah its not concourse car, but I thought that someone would know what was OEM. I'm backing type 2 and will go for this look. But it would be nice to know the colour details and what is original. There may be someone who is going concourse.
