I have just purchased a set of postwar Madison cars (Irvington, Madison, and manhattan) they are in bad shape paint wise. What color paint is the closest to the original brown color. Thanks

I have had good results at color matching by taking a sample to Home Depot and have them mix up a small sample jar for a very reasonable cost. I have also done this at an auto body paint store.
Al's idea is best, but if you don't want exact and want something that's just close right outta the can
I used primer rust color right out of spray can on my Madison cars. its was pretty close and I put a couple
coats of matte clear coat. gave them a nice finish that was not to glossy
