Interior color question need help

So my dash is being repainted after rust repair, and shop cant seem to find correct code for the Sienna brown that its painted currently. Its a 71 cutlass supreme convert, w interior trim color calling out 989 on the cowl. Here's a photo of the dash before work started
does anyone know the correct paint number I could tell shop to move this along

Thanks

.

Cant they just use the ‘color matching tool’ or dont they have access to one?

Just to follow up in case anyone else runs into this , I took the glove box door to an auto paint supplier and had match done . Their system was much better than Napa, and quickly scored a match . My example was called Vaquero, I'm assuming the last guy to own this got creative w color options.
the factory code off cowl,, and ppg sheet yielded nothing to match.. dark sienna... this photo shows the matched color
