I did a search and found that Frenchy sells DDS purple paint, and also found the UK Plastikote purple that supposedly is a close match.
I did some online searching and found "Testors" makes spray cans of Plymouth "Plum Crazy Purple".
Anyone know if that is the color DDS originally used? Seems like it may be it.....
Thanks!!

Not sure on that one, ask Frenchie... But, Paul Schley did tell me that more than once, he came home after a long day of painting manifolds at DDS, he had purple boogers in his nose.

He was telling me the same story EBI3 and TAO from Flat 4 said he had a pair of ida manifolds he could colour get a pic of to colour. |

Schley did confirm that DDS did use spray cans of some brand..., and not a custom mixed paint applied with a spray gun.
