This is a case of the blind leading the blind. I went with what my eye saw, and that may be different than what someone else's eye sees. I tried to consider photos of original McLarens, taking into consideration different film coloring and age of photos, etc. So basically a crap shoot. What I came up with was using a Fiat color (keep in mind, my computer bit the dust, am awaiting the backup for all the data I had on it, and a new computer is on the way, so this is off the top of my head) called Arancio Narciso. AR68412 is a ProSpray number (2005 Fiat color) based on a can of touchup I still have in the garage. If I remember correctly, it's a pretty simple formula of red, yellow, white, and black. I reduced the red, increased the yellow (by maybe 20% ???) to obviously reduce the red, and increase the yellow for a slightly less red than the fleet color to make it more orange in my own opinion (duh, yeah, but I had to say that). Also, I may have reduced the black a little, and increased the white (by maybe 5%) to increase the tint, or make it less intense. who knows if its right?
Google the color, and you'll sort of see what it looks like. IMHO, the color in can is more intense, which is why I tinted it down, and made it more yellow for my car.
