Does the MAFCA paint and finish guide (4) contain a paint chip sample for Aurora Red? Optional L30/31 rim color

Yes

Roger That, Thanks Gary

Not to pick nits, but the photo that Gary provided looks like Paint & Finish Guide #3, not #4. Chips in P&FG #4 are much larger, and yes, Aurora Red is in there.

Just FYI, Aurora Red powder coat is available from Modelawheelcolors.com.

When I went to paint my 30 open pickup about 18 years ago I wanted a deep red,or maybe some version of maroon.I've painted a lot of equipment,and went through the fleet color charts for a color I liked in urethane.I picked out 48 Ford Commercial Red.When I picked it up the mixing wizard told me he happened to notice my color crossed to an A color,Rubelite Red.Next to Aurora Red on the chip chart.
