Iso offered 24 exterior color choices, maybe more, there are 24 on this sample kit but there could have been others. This is a large selection for a small company and different than the Henry Ford philosophy of "any color you want as long as it is black".
These pictures show an original Iso color sample kit. I am sure that some, or all, of these same colors were offered by other Italian car manufactures in the 1960s.
Below is the back of the color samples where the color names and codes are printed.
