Need "T" Paint code

Heys guys, I have a 77 F150 and on the data tag it has a T for paint code. I have tried looking at some charts and can't find just a T. Can anyone direct me on this? The color is pretty much a bright red. Thank you much!

Working for NAPA I have access to Martin-Senour's paint library. The only "T" code I could find for red was from 66-72 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury. Code "2E" was also used for the same color, but again from 66-72. I have the chip books from 1940-current, if the available codes will help.
