it took me a while to find h6, but it appears to be a mustang color. maybe the door was off something different, and painted a different color, or just painted and color codes were changed over the years, who knows :P hahaha.

I listed it "WC" as your jam sticker states

and yes all colors and years have variants... example the manufactures robotics, will spray a cpl vehicle red, purge for 2 seconds and go to spraying another color (even white)..

not every vehicle has same color of sealer under base coat which will alter the finished color.. "most" automotive paint store can pull the variant by VIN #
