I have a suggestion that might sound weird, but the paint exactly matched
the two new wire (painted wheels) I got for my '69B: From Walmart in the
spary can Nybco 'Silver Touch' #6602. [BTW, the top of the can and the
writing on the can suggests a bright silver, BUT the actual paint is a
very dull silver that matches the original wheel paint quite well.]
