Its a 79 F250 and the door sticker under paint says VR I can tell its been repainted. Because its two tone now and the two tone color isint up high enough. Thanks for the help guys!

This is an odd combination, I checked two sources (Ford Master Parts Catalog, and PPG color chart for 1979) and both said the same thing.
V= medium chestnut metallic, R= light jade

That's what I found too but idk if I'm lookin at the wrong thing. I'm not sure that color combo would be too popular. My dash is red and its a different shade than the rest of the truck. The truck now is a brighter red and black two tone.
