Was it only available on the A12 for 1969? I saw someone posted on facebook it was an A12 only color for 69. They also said F6 and Ralleye Green were the same, so not sure if it's true or not. Sparked my curiosity.

Butterscotch was available on the 69 Dart also. F6 and Ralley Green are not the same.

I've seen Butterscotch on plain Road Runners so the answer is no.

All these colors were available on other Dodge/Plymouth models in 69

I think you misunderstood the answer to the F6/97 being the same colour. He was agreeing with you that they are different.

As for the Butterscotch/Bahama Yellow...he said the Butterscotch (Dodge Colour) was only available on A12 Super Bees (although I too have seen it on a 1969 Dart. I believe it was a Swinger 340 but I can't remember where I saved it on my computer lol) That could be another great topic to see if someone has the pics to back up a non A12 Bee with Code 96 Butterscotch paint.

Besides Road Runners what other Plymouths have you seen Bahama Yellow?

Paint code 96 is Butterscotch on a Super Bee. I don't think you will find 96 on other Dodges.

If the Dart pictured is car 3443**, it codes 99 NOT 96. Therefore it may be Butterscotch in color but it does not code 96. It codes for special order paint. If the color was released for Darts, one would expect to fine examples pop up now and then.

96 on a Plymouth is Bahama Yellow. The only 69 Plymouths I've seen that code 96 are Road Runners.

I've seen one 69 GTX that codes 97. Other than that, all I've seen are Road Runners.

F6 was released in early of December 1968 in the Dodge line up. You can find F6 on Darts, Chargers, Super Bees, etc.

1969 St. Louis plant VINs, SPD, and VONs.

We had an EL5 383 69 Road Runner here in CT.

The cool thing about EL5/Butterscotch is that is came back as a high impact paint offering in 1971.

There is a Butterscotch 69' Road Runner for sale locally here to us. Man, I can't believe how much I like it when I see it just because it is different.

Not sure if this is the original color and not sure if it even is Butterscotch? Looks a little too yellow.

The story the RR owner told me was he was in Vietnam and wrote a letter to his mom and dad that he wanted them to order the RR and that he would send them the deposit so it would be there when he returned from Vietnam soon. Mom and dad did as he requested with the options and color list he had mailed to them. He said that he immediately received a letter from his parents saying the dealership would not order the RR in the color, interior and vinyl roof without double the deposit and the deposit would not be refundable! They said the color combo was so odd that they were sure they would be stuck with it and felt that once he saw it he would back out of buying the car......... When I saw it I thought it was one of the coolest RR's I have seen because it is so unique.....good chance it's a very, very low build RR and dare I say a 1 of...........He thought it strange that I was talking photos of the hood lock bezels and walked up and asked me why? I said besides the color combo those are some really cool hood locks, pretty discrete.....then the whole story about the deposit and order.

Checkout the color matched door lock knobs wink
