Thats the one (what a beauty).

Preferred the colour coded steelies with hemi caps on.

Nope. It is actually a green colour with what looks like gold flake?

Ahh, sorry Dave, the one Rob n I had in mind was Y6.

Have to say, I do like J6, and forgive me for interferance further, but would that be the same colour as the Cuda owned by Newport100?

I hope I aint just guessing here, but it does look very similar

That is flippin close Clivey !
Mines sposed to be JF8 - - FOREST METALLIC GREEN
Thats depending whether they got the mix right when it was painted by the previous owner

I must say when I got some touch up paint mixed up locally to the correct spec it was a bit off!

That's a fab colour Dave, don't think I've ever seen a car in that shade before.

Me neither. Maybe the Green Hornet when I was a kid but my TV was black and white.

I have a Challenger owner on my site with a '74 model that came this colour. He was thinking about painting it as original but is worried about how it might look?

I have been trying to find ANYTHING painted that colour on the Internet, just to try and visualise what it might look like, but with no luck at all.

That would be much darker.

J6 was actually quite different in previous years and is the colour Jim's Roadrunner is I think?

That looks very much like the colour of my dads 73 Hillman Hunter. I think by that time a lot of the american colours had found their way over the pond to Chrysler European stuff. Grasshopper green if i remember having aerosoled over bodged holes in the sills when it was probably only 3 years old.
