I will try and locate the trim tag, but I know for a fact the original color was 'Autumn Bronze', that brick reddish-orange color also seen on GTO's, Bonneville's, etc.. I remember the day my father drove the car home from the dealership. He ordered the car with the options it has, such as the 3-speed, fold down rear seat, etc.. I was 7 years old and I distinctly remember that new car smell, lol.
I will attempt to get a photo of the trim tag for you. Thanks for your interest. Not sure this will work but if you copy and paste the below address, this shows the original color of the Sprint. This is not the same bird but referenced for color only:
