Are the 1967 and 1970 Marlboro Maroon colors the same? I am getting ready to paint a 1970 in lacquer. Thanks for your expertise.

Yes, paint supplier codes are the same. See link below.

Am I missing something here? Only the valspar codes are the same on that chart, and I'm pretty sure they were not an OEM supplier. My 67 and 70 maroon cars are both original-paint cars, and to my eye, they are different colors.
FWIW, the 67 sales brochure never calls out Marlboro maroon. In one area it refers to "Madeira maroon", and in another area to "Milano maroon".- Top

Re: 1967 Marlboro Maroon and 1970 Marlboro Maroon
pretty sure they are not the same. I think the 70 color is more Maroon than the 67.
the PPG and DuPont numbers are different between 67 and 70
OEM are not the same.
I can promise you the mix formulas are different as well.
Only way to find out is to go to the paint store and ask the counter person to compare the tint ratios/weights between both and see if they are the same.
My bet is they are not.

NO Not even close. The 70 Maroon has more red & the 67 has a more dark maroon color. My 70 LT-1 has original paint looks somewhat red in the sun.65 350 TI CONV 67 J56 435 CONV,67,390/AIR CONV,70 454/air CONV,
