Jimny "Shinsei" edition - yellow color code was created by Bosanek
I am trying to find out the exact color code of the special edition Jimny known as "Shinsei".
Those Jimnys have a particular shade of yellow body color.
As far as I know, that edition has been sold exclusively in Italy for the last couple of years only.
Here are a few examples:

Does anyone at least know where to search for the color code or who to ask?

And a mention of it being a 1970's "Dark Yellow" Paint Code?

It's the same colour as the old LJ ! -

Here is another video which shows the vehicle's color even better:
I found out that Shinsei was a one-time limited edition of 100 vehicles, sold only in Italy. Each vehicle had a small metal plate inside with inscribed X/100 number, where X indicates which one of the 100 vehicles that one is.
I can confirm S200KYS's findings that the color is called "1970s Dark Yellow" and that it should (more or less) be the same color as used on the LJ20 back in the days.
However, the only question is which color code is that old 1970s color.
Does anyone know of an Italian Jimny forum etc. where such a question could be asked?
EDIT:
The alternative ZWH color is a relatively close match, but I think that it is a bit darker.
Here is an example piece in that factory color (every photo camera takes pictures a bit different though):
