Default 1957 Convertible Paint formula question

Here's a tough one: :-)

I have a 1957 Convertible and I'm desperately searching for the paint
formula for L316 Almond Green (Metallic)- It was the original color- My
supplier (PPG) can't come up with a match and the original paint on the car
is too far gone to get an accurate sample for computer matching. Does anyone
have a car painted this color that I could have a sample scanned from, or
know who might have this information? Even Glasurit didn't have it. Any help
would be appreciated. Thanks!

I would contact John Henry TheBugshop.org (not sure) I believe he
should have the paint formula for both PPG and Dupont (not a good
thing)
