See if you can find the color code/name here and order some. Then spray a test panel for your local shop to scan to get a formula in whatever brand you desire.

Honestly, not really.  The whole car was re-sprayed 15-20 years ago.  There might be some original pain on the interior panels we can match to as a plan B.

We are having some issues finding a base/clear that would be a close match to Rosso 72.  My car is a 1973 Innocenti Mini 1001.  I did find this google doc

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NfUBDfQglyzFXnV18AtIeSZf7AMB6r1_Fh8fcDMLhvc/edit#gid=1360406071

But the code 6224 for my year wasn't valid (or the wrong color).  (it came blue or yellow i forget)

On a site that used to sell new paint labels i found the attached immage with the text ROSSO72 and 1959216.

My body shops paint supplier is having trouble finding the innocenti paint forumula's.  Any thoughts?
