Good Evening

Don't know if this will help, however, my body guy used Apple Green Code 15U as an undercoat. It's from a Daewoo. The brand was Nason. This was from a computer match.

Good Luck

Are you going single stage as original or BB/CC?...are you "locked in" to using PPG only?

We color mapped it from an original Lynch Road deck lid. Here is the side by side comparison.

You are talking about 1969 Dodge F6 - "bright green metallic", correct?

not '69 Plymouth "rallye green"

I bought f6 in ppg deltron, it couldn't have matched the factory color on the car in the protected areas any better if it was custom mixed. I'm never impressed with the coverage of deltron, but color match it's good as it gets.

please forgive this hijack, but i've been meaning to ask you for a long time now. the front "bumper" on your daytona, what was the source for that, or is it custom fabbed ? reason i'm asking, was during that time frame, pa. was really picky about having "bumpers" on ALL vehicles, and the daytona/superbird nosecones were a problem. TIA !

I believe yes it was because it was a late 69 color that came out in the spring of the year

...F6 was a "late" edition to the "spring colors" line up, hence some may have referred to it as "spring green"
