Default What colour

I have just dug my 3 door rocker cover out of the shed and I want repaint it

So my question is

What colour red shall I do it

I want it to look original well now most of the parts under the bonnet are new even the paint its not worth putting a crusty shite cover back on

If it has any original paint on it, even flakes these can be color matched by using the right people, as they mix the paint after viewing under a special paint anylyser .
