The easiest way is to visit a local paint factor. They should have the colour chips - select the one you want and they should be able to mix it. In UK Liverpool based Autpopaint International Ltd 0151 5491409 do a mail order service. If you have problems sorting a colour I may be able to help as I have access to colour cards but several mustard yellows were used over the years.

Mustard Yellow. I don't fancy that and there is a lot of metalwork exposed inside the car that should be painted as well, the engine compartment and under bonnet, then there is the change to the log book. I'd shich with the blue. Regards Peter
