Thanks

Several years ago someone else asked the same question and the reply was for rattle can paint - plasti-kote T-31 bright orange was almost a perfect match.  I used that and was very happy with the result.  I just checked and it's still readily available.

Since asked in the 67 section instead of the 65 or 66 section where they would be factory available ,you may not be aware that 67 Shelby's did not use Koni Shocks from the factory. NPD sells a color match paint in a spray can for Koni shocks.

Cobra Automotive offers spray cans of supposedly original color.

They do or at least they did. I still have a spare can as my back-up.
