Looking for a classy green
 
I am wanting to see some pics of green trucks, cars, bikes, etc. I am wanting a classy green if that makes sense?

I remember seeing a picture of a 2wd blazer a few years back, the core support was painted body color as well, and it was a really nice show truck. It was a medium/light green. I need some inspiration for my next build of a 68 shortbox 4wd

I really do love that green, But want something a little less common. I think I remember the blazer being a audi/bmw/mercedes color.

A 'classy' green just might be that older shade that (yes, I know) Ford and Porsche used in the early 1950's. Nasons in LA had paint chips for Diamond Reo, Dodge, Porsche, Plymouth (yes children, Plymouth actually produced a pickup), GMC, Ford as well as chevy. here's two examples:

Unfortunately the word classy, used to describe a color is really subjective and doesn't describe anything. A better idea would be for you to Google some images and post something similar to the shade your interested in.

Caribbean turquoise is a favorite of mine. Not something you see very often.

you could go into the paint store and ask them to match up a green to that of a dollar bill

I've always thought about a two-tone green using Corvette colors Mosport Green (which is light) and Goodwood Green (which is darker).
