Matching original color

I know little about painting or paint for auto or motorcycles so I am leaving that to professionals. My '78 bonnie color is rootbeer or metal flake brown in color. The painter said if I could supply a manufacturers color code or number it would save a lot of time/money. I don't have the slightest idea what he's talking about so I could use some help. I can do the research but don't know where to look. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
