New Holland Yellow is supposed to be a close match.  I found it to be 
somewhat iffy.  Bill Gunn sells the original color, but that usually 
doesn't 
match either because most of the tractors have faded over the years.

The best spraycan match I've found for my machine is (I hate to admit) the 
house brand at Wal-Mart in "equipment yellow."  That's gotten hard to find 
over the last year, though.

Generally, I just paint entire assemblies, or put up with the mismatch.
