Interior Paint Codes for 1966 442 Red Interior

I have a 1966 442 that we are restoring. When we bought the car it was red with black interior. According to the VIN plate it is supposed to have red interior. I would like to put everything back to what it is supposed to be. I am looking for the proper paint codes or paint so that I can do this right the first time.

Here are some good references I think you should find helpful. However, you might have a little trouble finding a local automotive paint store that can reference the DuPont paint codes. When I was restoring the interior of my 68 Toronado I had a heck of a time. I went to 6 or 7 different local places and none of them were any help. Luckily in 68 both Oldsmobile and Chevrolet use the same interior paint codes. So I was able to order it through Classic Industries. I ordered a quart for somewhere around $60.00...

The Product Information Manual (aka Assembly Manual) has more specifics regarding your interior colors. This manual is available at the Automotive History Preservation Society Library.
See the 2nd section here:
