Find the color "sunburst" made by Testors , color by Boyd #52708....its the correct color for the 326,350,400 etc emblems....(the letters are white)

you prob. bought a car from someone that had same taste as you...lol
I`ve seen white and black lettering that looks better than originals , on a few base colors , but to be original they should be orange/red

You can order them online , think its about $2.50 / jar...if you`re lucky your hobby shop stocks it...
