Wanda Paint Formulation For OEM Color

This is probably a long shot but I'm tossing it out there anyway. My local paint jobber carries Wanda paint for which my car will be painted with, BC/CC. Problem is, he states there is no formulation for Ford Gulfstream Aqua Poly/Met, code F. I looked through his Wanda related color chips and found a couple that I thought were close but that may not be good enough. Advice on getting this color mixed in Wanda?
 
Wanda is okay but mixes 2:1 so you get less RTS (ready to spray) paint. Check out Automotive Arts Motobase LV. It mixes 1:1 so you get 2 gallons of sprayable base coat.
Chad Sperry, a member on here, sells it and will ship it right to your door. I have used it on my last 5 projects and it sprays and covers great.

need more info. what are the years the color was used? is this an old color? seems like an odd code for ford. they are usually 2 letters.


edit: i looked it up. its 69-70. yes akzo for all their lines doesnt have much for formulas for classic cars. pre 90 is a roll of the dice. it is something that would need to be formulated or pick the closest color from the color chips then tweak from there. problem is most jobbers dont do any color matching. they just dont have the ability to work that by eye and come up with a color. you need someone that actually uses it every day, not just sell it.
