If anyone has a modern code I would appreciate you sharing it with me. Thank You.

Probably because most restorers don't use base-clear when they are restoring. DuPont is no longer in the paint business either, which is why they likely could not cross-reference it.
How I would approach something like this is to find a PPG jobber store. Have them call the PPG library and obtain the formula for their DBU line. If you do not wish to go that way, find a paint jobber that has a spectrophotometer where they can scan the chip in the Model-A Ford Paint & Refinish guide and mix from there.
