Default 66 GTO pinstripe

I just got my 66 GTO repainted, and I want to get the pinstripe painted on. The car was painted my senior year of high school (1988), and I used pinstripe tape from the auto parts store for the stripe, and I don't remember the details of the original. I found some pictures on a thread on this site that show very nicely where the stripe goes, but I have one question. My car is Marina Turquoise. The stripe is white, but is there a specific white (is if off-white, or pure white, or...)? I want to be able to let the guy who's going to paint it know.

Thanks,
Importsmasher

Cameo Ivory on the Marina Turquoise cars. I finshed my '66 in August. Haven't put the pinstripe on yet. Still debating if I am going to put it on or not. Most likely will.

Well, I finally got the pinstripes painted on. The car didn't look complete to me without them.....
