Schwinn Paint color help

[AS-1]

So, for years, I have always wanted to build out a Schwinn hornet and give it a unique paint job, but one that would have fit within the Schwinn catalog of duotone combos. Yellow is my favorite color and after seeing @Freqman1 yellow B507 he acquired from REC's collection, I decided to pursue the idea. I already have a donor bicycle and all the extra parts. BUT, what I'm missing, and what I'm hoping you all can help me with, is what would a suitable lighter yellow be in conjunction with the yellow pictured.

I'm also thinking of doing a reverse scheme on it too. So the darker color (pictured) would be the head tube and the fireball color.

Did schwinn offer a pale yellow color at all?

Any help would be appreciated and if you have photos, please share them.

Maybe you should have started a thread on the colors of old trucks.

Baby schit yellow. I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses this term to describe Chevy 1970's yellow. LoL!!

You will probably beat me to it, but this is the inspiration for my next winter project.
