Dear Frank,
When I restored my '31 Rumble-seat coupe, and wanted the straw wheels, I found a close color in a paint chip book. The color that I used was '80 volvo yellow. It is VERY close to the original straw with its almost cream color and it looks great! I also used '80 Ford truck maroon for the body, reveals, grille insert and interior gas tank with black fenders, top, shields, dash panel and detail stipes. The color scheme is really beautiful. The maroon is just a shade brighter than Henry's, but still looks very authentic.
