I'd be willing to bet that it isn't medium olive green. Looks like code 43 lime green, a 1970-71 only car color. My Nova is that color

Me and him call it lime green but he says its med olive. I dont know. never was that peticular with it.It may be lite olive green.

His brother has a Monte Carlo thats its twin.

Re: Green trucks
 
If its the original color and the car has a trim tag on the firewall it will have 43 as the color code if its lime green, the lighter green would be 42. Is the Monte a 70 or 71?

Here's my 1972 stepside 4 x 4. The color is 518 Medium Green. I have thought of changing the color over the years (I'm the original owner), but if I did no one would recognize me around town.

ok. All this green stuff is makin my head spin - and I thought I knew my greens very well.... rpatowers, thx for posting the name of the color. Not all are labeled, so I want to ask a question about 72 greens. As we're all aware, the "brochure" name is different than the "SPID" name of the color - kinda like Hugger=Red Orange, etc.

With the help of some previous posts and a very helpful color sheet for 72 from TimSS, here's what I THINK I know:

504 = Med Olive Poly = Willow Green
505 = Dark Green = Glenwood Green
506 = Dark Olive Poly = Spruce Green
518 = Medium Green = Meadow Green

So, is any of the above incorrect? And am I misisng one of the greens? Were there 5 in 72? For example, if you look at rpatowers' medium truck - that is what I always understood medium green to look like. Med olive, dark olive, and dark green all stand out as easily discernable also. BUT, what green (paint code/SPID name/brochure name) is THIS green: (or is it a non-stock green?) To me, it kinda looks like the old neptune green from the AD trucks... maybe not drak enough though. Thoughts?

My junior year of High School (1990) I restored this '70 C10. I traded a TH400 for the truck body (it came to me without an engine). Wish I still had this truck and the others I fixed and sold over the years…

http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1131/1...cc0_z.jpg?zz=1

http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1172/1...9c5_z.jpg?zz=1

I actually had two trucks in HS. I still have the yellow '68 GMC (it had a '67 front clip on it back then). Took every thing I learned about body work on the C10 then painted the GMC for a second time in 1993 which is the paint the GMC it still wears today.

Wish I had a better picture of how it turned out after I painted it
http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3084/3...0eb_z.jpg?zz=1
http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1238/1...fb0_z.jpg?zz=1

Sold the C10 in the morning and bought a ’72 K5 that afternoon. Same color too! Man, that was a long time ago! I think it was 1992??
