I was just curious to see what it looked like. I have another color in mind and pretty much have my mind set, but would like to see the factory colors, just in case.

My wagon was Thatian Turquoise and it is an ugly color has a dirty look to it and doesn't pop in the sun. There are color chips here on the site with that color and see for yourself. Or have a pint mixed at a paint store and get the big picture.

Mine is Tahitian Turqouise. Of course the paint is shot after 44 years in the sun, snow, sand storms etc. I remember when Mr. Buck bought it new. I thought it was a nice color. Bought it from him with 8,500 miles on it. It is a dark green metallic. Not what you might consider a ''turquoise" color. I thought mettallics were cool when I was a kid. Now just give me a nice solid color, preferably a light color that doesn't highlight dust, imperfections, and get hotter than hell sitting in the sun...I think I have an old Kodachrome slide from then that might show the color fairly accurately.

I have saw the paint chips for them. I just wanted to see an actual car painted like that. I know what color I am going with, but am curious to see what it actually looked like the original colors. JJ'65, if you happen to run across a photo, please share it with me. Even if it doesnt have the top color, the lower will give me an idea to start pondering on. Thanks guys.

Its not that bad of color. I dont think the two colors would look good together. I think I will stick to my color I have already picked out. Thanks for the help.
