Ben: I recently did a 1919 Ex for a friend. I used a colour as close as I could match from colour charts. The number given to me by the paint shop is : #YS 338IDA. It is called green yellow. This is not a computer scan of original paint but a visual match. I believe it turned out very close to the original. If you need more information email me. Tom
