Schwinn Paint codes?

[skillsthebarber]

Ive been searching for schwinn paint codes and havent came up with anything. The color im trying to match are 1959 Schwinn "Light red and Ivory" like in the photo below. Also does anyone know if the rims in this pic are ivory or white? thanks in advance

I could have been given wrong information, but I was told that the schwinn bikes used the same paints as the vehicles did in the same eras they were built. It at least seems to hold true for the muscle bikes. I have not looked into it further to verify, but hope it may steer you in the right direction.
