Try a search for Lowes Paint or Home Depot Paint. There should be some info with mix info to use house paint that looks decent.

The bottom of my M135 is the cheapo wall mart exterior house paint in semigloss stock color "Spanish oak" the cab is a custom mix 24087 but lost the codes.

If you mix one part of Rust Oleum Hunter Green with one part Leather Brown, you will get a color that is a dead on match to 24087 (early seventies version)... I've painted several trailers this way and have been very pleased (no chips/facing in eight or so years, except from dragging stuff out of the bed...).

Good luck.
