Question PPG Paint code to Pantone?

Hello - I have a customer that would like me to print some graphics and he has a PPG paint code for the color that he would like (PPG74790 Viper Red).
He is not local so I can not see the color in person to match up myself.
Are there any online cross reference sites where I could get a close pantone match (or cmyk, lab, rgb values)?
Thanks for any information!

Hi there - thanks for the info, but it is not the Chrysler Viper Red. It is the PPG color called Viper Red. It is actually going on a Sea-Doo Watercraft.

- BASF 94820
- PPG 74790
- BRP B176
These are all the same color from different paint companies and they all lead back to Chrysler Viper Red.

PPG paint code for Chrysler Viper Red is PPG 73840 where Sea-Doo Viper Red is PPG 74790.
I might give it a shot and hope that it is close enough.

What year is the sea doo because from what I've found different years have a different variation of red.

Yeah thats the right red but I dont see where anyone has the color value listed. But I did see where someone matched it with Cardinal red CMYK 0/83/74/26 which is close the the chrysler CMYK 0/84/80/21

edited- the files I originally referenced do not pertain to this class of paint, sorry.
