Go get paint swatches from the paint store and physically color match your cabinet.
 
Red is a difficult color to match.......also, red is more susceptible to fading (though, all colors can and do fade). The wide variety of colors you're finding online is probably because of fade. No two cabinets fade the same.

Your best bet is going with what Phet suggested.

i'm just wondering for the small spots which are really not bad if i am not doing more damage than good , it is just on the left side of the cabinet in two spots......

Yeah, after 30 years, 'touch-ups' are kinda hard to do. The original paint has faded, and it looks to have been a thin lacquer, which as far as I know they have phased out. My paint swatch technique is your best bet. Mine has a few faded stripes on the side that I have just learned to live with, as the machine is in great physical condition otherwise.
