Probably Deep Bronze Green.

Just google it... there's millions of pictures..

Which is the same colour as 1950's 60's and early 70's Land Rovers.

If you want an easy way to match the colour buy a tin of modellers paint (in the green you need) then paint a 4"x4"square, take it to a paint shop and get them to match.

Cheers,

Ian.
Many and various pieces of tin with wheels.
