1973 RT3 paint was created by Doctor K

Howdy from Texas! I have acquired a real roach of a 1973 RT3, and am getting ready to start it's restoration as soon as I finish my 1972 DT2. I am on the cheap side, so am looking for some advice concerning the 'Baja Brown Metallic' primer/paint/clearcoat - my budget is limited to rattle can paints. I have searched all 21 pages of the paint section, and although there is excellent advice concerning process and clearcoats (thanx all!), I wasn't able to find any rattle can paint that closely matches this color. I don't need an exact match, as this will be a rider, but I'd like to get close. I also understand that I will need a colored primer and clearcoat. Any advice out there?Howdy from Texas!
