I would have guessed Bombay Ivory. But based on some other stuff I saw online only a beige or tan was used. Here is a link I found to a discussion about which beige or tan. The red comment relates to Cameo interiors.

It could be Bombay Ivory. Dupont Nason Ful-Thane 2K Urethane Code: LS122 IB. That's what I used.

I think light gray and charcoal grey was all that they had, except for the cameo. Not real sure though.

The gm heritage center wont load any of the info I need. Any other Ideas on paint codes for the interior cream white, exterior bright white, and the exterior brown? Stovebolt didnt have anything either. Oh, and I am wanting to go with base/clear on the paint also.
