Hope someone can ID this color. Maybe even the owner that I uhh...borrowed the pic from?
I'm thinking it's a VW OG color.

Another color that may be close is L478 Beryl Green. It's a 1963 Beetle color. Great looking car! |

Yeah, the Ghia pictured is really sweet.
Beryl Green appears a bit too light and too yellow.
I think Mango Green (another canidate) is darker.
I was hoping the owner would chime in on this thread. That would be the best confirmation on color. Color on line is so unreliable. |

Speaking of color, I have been wondering lately if there is a list somewhere of all the stock colors offered for the Ghia. Is there such a list somewhere? |

See the link in the second post of this thread, paint and upholstery are listed by year in the technical section. |
