Look at your cowl tag. The paint code is stamped on there. Once you know the number, you can stop by your local paint store and have a look at their chip charts and see what color your car is supposed to be.

It doesn't matter what color the car originally was paint it what you want besides most of the colors from the 70 where sh**ty to say the least. Beside a multistage paint job looks alot better...
