What color is this called?

I have a picture of a Blazer here that I got on here and was really taken to show the seats but I was wondering what the exterior color is called(maybe a full pic too?) And at least one year it came in. I looked at the charts for different years and closest I could come up with was a turquoise but it didn't look right. Maybe not original?

A buddy of mine has a 67 Mustang about that color..

Total guess though. That looks more like a mid-50s Corvette / T-Bird color.

I looks like the same color as mine, which is Medium Green. (By the way; GREAT looking interior!) Check out this thread: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=341840

I believe that is the blazer was built by Livrat. The color is Tartan turquoise. He did an incredible job.

I LIKE IT TOO!. I did see that color Tartan Turquoise too in the chart and I saw that same Mustang! But that Medium green Thread has some nice looking trucks too with a similar if not same color. I really like those two tones with the white. Maybe the Blazer owner I sniped the pic from will come forth and take the credit, and let us know for sure.

Looks like according to the the chart, the Chevy truck medium green came out in 1970 and ran to 72 as far as out years are concerned.

Yep. 518 Medium Green. I've been driving a truck with that color for 41 years.
