That's known as a "hammertone" finish, and while it looks nice it can be 
a bear to match precisely.

No, but I also have a 140X in need of repainting. If I find a paint 
source I'll let you know. I've heard that auto painting shops might be 
able to match the paint, but I haven't tried any yet. Check your local 
yellow pages for "Paint" or "Auto Paint" and make a few calls to see if 
anyone can prepare hammertone finishes.
