Asking for a friend - Looking to see if there is a Dodge Truck color chart on-line somewhere. He is looking for a color called Desert Turquoise?? Thought to be available in 1956 and possibly also in 1962.

The Turquoise color was available as early as 54, my 54 pickup was originally Turquoise and cream two tone.
I've seen color charts on line, but the pictures of the colors are pretty small. Should show up in an online search.

I had my 54 painted all Turquoise, its not the original factory color, but its pretty close, so you can get an idea what it looks like. How the sun light hit my truck changed the shade of the color, all 3 pictures were taken at the same time.

Auto Color Library is the best I've found and have used it for many years. I checked using the 56-62 criteria and didn't see a turquoise color listed called "desert turquoise".

Here is everything with that name. It is hard to judge colors over internet so look at an actual color chip if you plan on painting it.

My 56 C3 looks turquoise, but also looks blue to my eyes: guess its either Wedgewood Blue or Aquamarine

Found this online. By this color chart I'd say my 56 is actually Wedgewood Blue and not Turquoise.

Appreciate everyone's input!
