So I'm looking at my fender tag and its interesting. E65 and J68. Look those up eh. I'm thinking the J6 represents
Green go but what is the 8? E65 it seems is super bee colors. Can any of you motor heads explain this? I do remember
When my mom bought me this car....... the guy was broke and had to sell it.  Anyway he said Never change the color of
this Cuda.

Sweet! Love them '71 Cuda's. And its in one of my favorite colors too. Now about that color, its just a minor technicality, but FJ6 on a Plymouth is refered to as Sassy-Grass-Green. Yeah, Sassy-Grass-Green and Green-Go are the exact same color (FJ6) but it goes by a different name based on what it's on. Like Six-Pack vs Six-Barrel, Magnum vs Commando, etc, etc. Dumb I know, but it is what it is

Ya I hear ya Tom. When my car was painted in 92, no one  made that paint color. Duane , the guy who redid my car for me
While I was in the service had to get the paint codes from Chrysler Corp. Chrysler said FJ6 is Green Go so I've always called
it that. But ya its really Sassy Grass.

Looks nice. Did you ever post the fender tag somewhere? Just curious as to all the options and stuff.
