Original Colours

Is there any way that I can find out the original colour of my Targa. At some point the car has been resprayed Light Red and has the colour tag on the A post which states this (2310)(10 = Targa). But on stripping the car down it appears to be tangerine in all the nooks and crannies. So either the car has been painted more times than I first thought or its had the tag changed when resprayed in the eighties. I know the obvious way to find this out would be to get the Birth Certificate From Porsche (£50-60).
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

In case a picture helps.
2310 is blutorange or tangerine. If the car was a coupe the code would be 2323.

Cheers, Think I'll be sticking with the tangerine. Strangely enough the first car I everdrove was my uncles 72 Targa in Tangerine round Millbrooke Test track when I was 12. Funny how history repeats itself.
