All the color brochures etc. for the beginning of the model were printed without showing FY1 , so people were pretty much unaware it could be ordered unless the dealer told them specifically . I had always thought they dropped GB7 when they added FY1 back in , but it looks like GB7 was dropped on 11/9/70. And since it was mentioned above ..GY4 Honey Dew was added on 3/16/71 .

And would love to get this info. Some of this stuff has been floating around for years, but generally you have to buy it from Galen Govier. His stuff covers all available options for US-spec cars, so if you have a Canadian or Export car, it would not be included in the tallies. Anyway, FC7 was a popular color for the R/T hardtop: 213 built for the US. EF8 and EB5 are similarly popular, with FK5 being the most popular.

Their names were as colorful as the paints Finally, as an after-thought, I dug up a list of the 9 paint names that were "allegedly" rejected by Chrysler executives. These are legendary or maybe infamous: Catch me Copper Unforeseeable Fuchsia Statutory Grape Gang Green Well Read Cost of Living Rose Fisher Body Rust Hi-Ho Silver Frank Loyd White cheers!
