    hey Col. Kurtz,

    Unfortunately, I don't know exactly what my color is. My car was repainted before I bought it nine years ago. As you can see it's in very decent shape, so I've never touched the body. It is a lacquer paint job though, so it must be at least 15-20 years old. To the best of my knowledge, I think this color was called Sea Foam Green in 1965.

    Beautiful

    How about "Turquoise Mist Poly"?

    The code for that is "K" according to the chart and paint chips I have.

    First car I ever drove was a Seafoam Green '65 Skylark and that is a very very pale true green. I have some pictures of it (smashed up) but you would readily see the difference.

    Your car looks beautiful and it really is a treat to see that color!

    ~P~

    Awesome!

    My 65 Skylark Conv. was originally Aqua Mist but was repainted black. I've debated returning in back to the factory color but now since I seen yours.. it's a no-brainer! :Dou:

    Mine will be back to it's original color this spring... :TU:

    Thanks for sharing the pictures.

    Sweet 65, my first car was a 65 and my second car was a 65 with a 430 dropped into it! What a sleeper! No one knew what hit them, they especially liked the cool tail lights 'cause that's what most of them saw as I went by them!
    I will be definetily adding a 65 to my collection in the future!
