I am looking for pictures and color codes in the factory light green,i have seen several pictures in the forum and i decided that is the color that i want to paint mine so any help would be great!

MikeN · 01-20-2011, 11:02 AM

You mean like this, or something different?

jonzcustomshop · 01-20-2011, 12:21 PM

that looks more like a tropical turquoise

likaroc13 · 01-20-2011, 12:37 PM

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...highlight=teal

if that helps any

I gotta say though when I saw this thread I thought it was funny cause it was so precise. I was waiting for the next thread "lets see the indigo trucks with chrome grills, painted bumpers, and smoothy rims!" hehe, I am planning on painting my truck green though so good thread regardless

There is a color that is a bit on the lighter side of yours that i would like to go with also.

I know it's the wrong era but here's my '69 painted '69 light green:

Can also be brighter depending on the light that day. You can see the shade different between the shade from the tree and the sun beating down on the truck:
