what colour is my van?

Apprently you can find out this info for the vin plate but I'm not at home so need some educated guessing

I have looked on the brick yard for info on paint. My van is a 1982 so from the charts on there is must either be

ORIENT RED
or
MARSALA RED

Anyone care to make a guess.

And also can I get this paint from any car paitn shop if I give them the correct paint code?

It looks like faded Marsala Red to me

thanks guys

I was just about to order some red paint but it seems that would have been a waste of time since it is either blue or white

Correct. It's Marsala red. VW code H3
Remember - most colours are really only part of a shade of tartan
