I think the colors in your photos might be too yellow. Here are some shots that show an original, unrestored tank in a low mileage car I used to own:

Here is there web site. You might have to call, I don't see the product on the site.
Paterek has used their tank color for years.
https://colorplus.com

The correct is a shade of grey not the ivory shown above.

None of your colors are correct. Did you call Color Plus?
