Hi Keith, The PPP in 1958 was Matador Red which was the same color as the 59 red. The 1958 OOO, tahitian coral, just looks to me like a darker gauguin red - code P in 1957. On the subject of color thoughts, the Aztec turquoise (code HHH) always in a D convertible always reminded me of a swimming pool on wheels.
