1968 MF 250 Paint

I bought an MF model 250 new in 1969 as a 'NEW HOLDOVER". I rode it a couple years then was given a 400 Cross in 1970. My wife found the oringinal 250 and presented it to me as a birthday gift 3 years ago. I sent the tank to a "professional restorer" to have tankslapper dents taken out, new chrome, paint and decals. Chrome is okay, decal is correct but boy is the paint wrong.
After a 2 1/2 year wait, and a premium price, I have what I term a raspberry colored tank not the red that I recall. I do recall a 360, I think, of that era that was near this color Now I know I'm forgetful but not that bad. Can anyone provide the correct paint number(s). I would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thanks in advance.

T,
I snaged those off a UK web site last night, But I do have most all Husky paint codes up too 82 or so. no codes for the 83 white and up. problem is, I moved a while back and there in a box somewhere in my very full storage unit and have not had the time to find everything, but when I do we will get them posted.

Thank you tommie d and HuskyT. I know this will come up again.
I knew this brain trust went wide and deep. Thanks again

Too bad the pictures did not show up, I just copied and pasted that part of the page. It had a very nice pic of a red gas tank and one of the silver frame.

Hi guys would these codes be correct for a 1970 360 cross ? Thanks

The frame silver is likely for all years of silver frame and the CR red should be correct back to the first as well. Check restorations at www.vintagehusky.com John restores as correct as anyone else I know.

Are you sure the 360 Cross is a 1970? The 1970 400 Cross superceded the 360Cross. and I believe the 1970 360 was a Sportsman with the bolton subframe and long rear fender loop.. I had a 1969 360 Sportsman that had the lights removed and a racing tank on it that was sold to me as a 250. I got that when I was 14 in 1974. When I found it was a 360, I could not ride it in the Jr enduros or NESC MX because of 16yr age requirement to ride the Open class

The bike is a 360 cr 1970 with the MH frame thanks
