Absolutely. One supplier was able to access Ford's basement where many early engines were stored and matched the paint that way. Also, as mentioned above, the shade of green that is considered correct is in the Paint & Refinish Guide. That color can be mixed in Alkyd Enamel if so desired. So much of the restoration process can be done accurately and authentically if people would just make the effort. Too many hobbyists seemingly don't even try.
