Anyone have any info on paint codes or suppliers for portofino gold paint?
Was used in 1969 on the Aussie Morris and MG range. Not many examples around.
It is listed on the Australian Mini Paint & Trim post but I don't believe there is sufficient detail for a modern mix.
Unfortunately I don't have a sample to match.

I cant help with the modern paint mix and I doubt many paint specialists would have it in their system.

I have a photo of the sticker showing the original colour on the firewall.

Would this one have been Gold all over, as there is no adjacent White sticker?
