Haven’t ever looked up the trim tag code for my original color until this morning. I thought it was a butternut yellow but in fact the 50 in the trim tag shows it was a cover white car with black vinyl top. I guess the surface rust, backed on pollen and age had me thinking it was butternut yellow. EC0CF545-5AD9-4F9F-B55C-BBCB841012B6.jpeg
 
I had the same problem with an aged original paint '64 Olds Starfire thinking it was cream colored when in fact the factory color was provincial white. Time and the sun took its toll on the paint.
