they  offer two paint codes for this van in red.  the two are Titan Red

Now this is a very good question.  I've had  the same problem here.  Why are
there two codes for the same Titan Red  colour ?  Anyone out there with an '87
Titan Red van that still has the  paint code tag that can be read ?  When my
local auto paint supplier  flogging, Dupont Paints, looks up Titan red for an
'87 Van he comes up with the  LE3T code which is referred to as Tizian Red by
Dupont.  Seems to be some  foul up somewhere with this color code.  Sure would
be good to get a  definite answer.
