If you goto any automotive paint store, they'll have the books showing all the available colors for your year model. Being 1975, there weren't a vast amount available like today so getting a match won't be much of a problem.

Ok, found it on Sherwin Williams website. For 1975 there were only two reds available.
Rangoon Red - code 2v
Viking Red - code 6
Hope that helps out.

It's quite simple..look at the VIN plate and take the paint code from that. That'll tell your paint store exactly what color RED you have.
Where it says Paint on the VIN plate...look ABOVE for the code, not below. There will be either: 2 numbers; 2 letters; or 1 number and 1 letter. Double that for tu-tone.
Ford parts personnal do have refs..they just don't want to bother. That wasn't the case however, in my day.
Mi1lion has very good sources for paint info, and I have some as well.
