Which Red?



Hi All,

I am still trying to get some paint to touch up a GTV I just purchased. I
tried the nail polish idea and have 
not found the right color that way, so I am back to trying to determine the
color code (it's not the original 
color of the car, but its does appear to be a stock Alfa red). 

The car is a '67 GTV and the color is the Alfa red that almost orange. It
looks very much like 
the color of the GTV on this page
http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Garage/5949/index.html.

It perhaps looks a little more orange even (depending on your browser and
screen).

Can anyone tell me which of the below are the "orange red's" 
and which one is most likely to be painted on a '67 GTV? 
(thanks to Willy R. for the table from his website)
