Paint Code

Greens generally stated with "F" in 1973.

...but the first digit of the three digit code was the first year the paint was used.

"F6" was a real common color of green.

IIRC the first year of that specific color was 1969, so it would be "E".....or "EF6"

Paint code is usually on the left side of the tag.

If your car does not have a vinyl top, there should be two of the same codes, one on top of the other-

EF6
EF6

If it does have a vinyl top, then the code for the top is on top- (black, full vinyl top)-

V1X
EF6

That is one of the few things on a tag that is not read bottom to top, left to right.

I think I got all that right.
