The paint shop you are getting the paint from should definitley be able to help. In fact if you have any panel off your car you can take it in to be colour matched, or even the beetle itself if it is drivable.

No probs at all. Quite often they colour match to a small panel like a petrol flap, but as your beetle is 61-62 it wont have a flap.
