Smile correct color code for rally wheels

I'm restoring a 1975 olds with factory rally wheels and I want to have them sandblasted and powder coated so I need to know what the color code is for the Gold Factory colors on those wheels.

In 75 most were painted as SS III so if your car is gold, the paint code should be on the car.
Here are the 1975 colors

Listed under Hurst/Olds paint codes: Ditzler 24149 gold.
Yes, we like our proper terminology here. FYI don't use ram air (poncho)

I thought they had moved strictly to 15" in 1975.

Nope. Both 14x7 and 15x7 were optionally available. 14" tires were the norm until well into the 1980s.

It's just that all of the Cutlass' I have seen from 75-77 had 15" wheels on them, even with hub caps. I saw many more 14" 74 and down though.
