I saw the same thing. I think the writer is misinformed with how he characterized it. Despite the color appearing in the color chips (the paint company ones, not Chrysler's), it was not a regular production color in '71. I think at least three '71 cars are known to have been built, but all of them were special order cars. Nick will be able to shed some light on this because he owns one of them.




As for the paint charts. Most of the 1971 charts I have that have FM3 on them, they list it as Spring 1970 only. Even the '70 charts show the '69 Spring colors.
