I don't think you will be able to get the original color back. If the clearcoat is chalky (white-ish) you can use some compound to bring back the shine, but if the color underneath is faded no amount of polishing will bring back the original color.

From the looks of the photos, I think the base color may be faded. Too much Texas sun.
