Try this site www.colorwrite.webs.com. And if you get the opportunity, post a pic. I am putting a 49 EL back together. Not stock (gonna work back to it) but stock looking.

In 1949 the colors where: Burgundy, Peacoak Blue, Black, Metallic Congo Green, and Police Silver w/Black stripe. Special order: Flight Red and Azure blue. Here is an excellent place that will have antique colors. They even have a online catalog and catalog you can order. Super place: http://antiquecyclesupply.com/default.htm
