paint code tangerine orange

Does anyone know the paint code or designation for tangerine orange? I believe it was 69 or 70 year. My local paint shop had other listings but not tangerine. Any ideas? Thanks. Paul.

You'll see it listed as Tangerine or Blood Orange.

Check out this site. It's in German, but easy to navigate:

According to the Sikkens website, it is POR018. The code they have for my color matched exactly when i had some mixed (at NAPA) for the front trunk.

Paul and Lee,
Thanks for the suggestions. I learned that blutorange is really more reddish than what I was thinking. I really want a very orange look, and surmise it is gulf or signal. Signal, on the german website (1972) 1st looks orange, then other examples look more yellow. Am I missing something? Paul.
