It seems that until the mid-50's, passenger cars faded to somewhat of a "tomato-soup" red.

Here's one I used once, and was reasonably happy. I use ModelFlex by Badger on plastic, as it goes on nicely and is useable without thinning in an airbrush. I am using a mixture of:
   
   - 1 part Milwaukee Rd Maroon
   - 2 parts SP Daylight Red

If I get it a little different next time, so what? All cars fade and oxidize, so variations make it more prototypical.
