Picture of Flame Red/Maroon/Burgandy Trans Am with gold stripe?

Does anyone have a picture of this? I know some came from the factory like this. They were a solid flame red color, like a GTA, but with the thin trans am stripe just about the ground effects all around the car.
I am trying to picture this.
Thanks!

Thats the right color, but I`m looking for one with the Trans Am striping and not the solid color of the GTA. If you could imagine, like the one below, but in the color of that GTA in the link and with a gold stripe around the bottom like the silver one in this pic:



Thanks!

That's strange cause my color code says flame red.

Interesting. I noticed that the paint color I am looking for is 74, flame red metallic. Maybe there is a separate code for the solid flame red, which is the bright red color in those years?

I've heard of something like flame red and solid red. I would think flame red would be brighter than the GTA maroon color.

Flame Red Metallic is the Maroonish color.

Bright Red is the Red
