Any pics of 1965 maroon (code 542) trucks?

This seems to be a pretty rare colour. Does anyone have any pics (or links) of 542 maroon 1965 trucks?

Thanks in advance!

The one I am restoring has this color from the factor. The place I get my paint said the color was unavable so they had to color match it.

Any pics?

I'm also wondering how close it is to the car line "Maderia Maroon". Here's my other 65:

Chevy really liked to use the maroon colors in '62 through '65. Madeira Maroon and Honduras Maroon were similar, and you might be able to get the paint shop to use them as a guide for the mix ratio. My Dad had a '65 Chevelle SS back in the day that was that color. Being that it was lacquer, and my Dad loved to wax it all the time, the UV rays killed the shine in about 5 years. Man, it looked great when it was freshly waxed. My Dad used SOS pads to clean the redlines and used black shoe polish on the sidewalls and buffed them with a brush. This was in the late '60s. He was a trend-setter!
