You can't buy the original green paint but Hammerite Smooth do a very similar shade but I think that has been discontinued now. Sometimes available through Ebay.

Which ever colour you go for just use hammerite smooth. Two coats & they look Lurvely

AFAIK, hammerite no longer make the paint in the required shade. The one you want is called "Smoothrite Green" whereas the new shade is "Smoothrite Dark Green".

I found a guy selling it on fleabay...

ebay link

Thats actually the seller I used, they were an excellent ebay trader! Other sizes may be available, but I got this size so i would always have some for future repaints.
