    I'll check tonight. I brought out the stinkin book for you and neglected to check the code. 99% sure it's 302C but I will post again to confirm. I'll post the back tag of the chip.

    LOL, so that's the same as the two previously posted.

    Never thought of the 302/C being such an elusive thing to chase down!

    Sorry Steven, no dice yet as for good pictures of a 308 in Rosso 302/C, but a lot of nice pictures here of a 246 Dino in the old "Rosso Rubino", which show the color quite well.

    Plus, the "Dino" is such a gorgeous car that it can't hurt...

    Thanks Bruno, I like that darker red. I have search on F Register as well, not too many examples were found too. No worries, time is on my side and Rosso Corsa is still my favourite :D

    I've tried reaching out to ferraripete earlier as well but his PM box is full. Hopefully he sees this a have it cleaned up a bit. He did respond to my other post in the general section.

    After months of search, I've resorted to paint chip samples to confirm the actual colour of Rosso Met. 302/C. I've found it and here are the comparison with Rosso Corsa 300 and Rosso Dino 301:

    The colour changes a lot under different lights. It glistens under bright sunlight or artificial light at an appropriate angle like other metal paints and appears slightly pinkish too. It appears to be a darker colour if there isn't enough light.

    It's darker than Rosso Corsa obviously and differs from the newer Rosso Met. 305/C but still appears to be quite a bit lighter than the Salchi paint Rosso Rubino.

    And then I have also found a car with this colour from this ad:

    The colour of this car appears to be consistent with the factory paint chip I've got but the paint chip photos appear somehow different.

    Well, found what I need at least. The paint job can still wait :)
