Here you go. When I repaint mine, I will add green to the hardtop except for the rain lip & topmost part.

That's 2000 EB Expedition Estate Green metallic & Light Prarie Tan metallic. If you want to play with colors, read this caption:

Man , I was wondering how that color combo would look .... sweet !
I had the same paint scheme in my head when I was looking at greens.
Very nice.

Alright, saw all those greens, now let me show you the right one, IMO. This isn't mine but belongs to someone else, so hope they don't mind me posting a picture of it here.

What the hell happened to the rest of your door frame?????:eek:

Haaa!! My EB didn't come with doors, found red doors on CL for $200.00. Local bodyshop/friend had someone come in and match up the new paint with the old. To bad he didn't leave me quart of mixed paint. I really wish I knew the color as well, I'm trying to find touch up paint for all the little nics and scratches. I just finished painting the interior doors, roll bar, and grill matte black.

I like the suggestion of finding a car color on the road and writing the make and model. Good luck on finding the green you want and then post it for us.;D

I joined then and bought mine about the same time. Didn't get to retrieve it till October-ish... been buying parts and figuring out what she will look like when done and which direction. I always liked the look of cut broncos till I saw Zillacon's red one... it just grabbed my attention and I think that LUBER is my direction. Probably going to buy a set of F150 8 spoke rally wheels with beauty rings and center caps to keep the outside with a vintage OEM look but it will have a 2.5 WH lift, a 1" BL and more. Interior will be all custom and power so I have lots to do. Since I can't work on it yet, have to finish my sons B2 by June when he gets his DL, then I will pull it into the shop and get started. If all goes well, I hope to be in paint by the end of summer but that seems to be the easiest-most affordable part of the planned build. I figure it will be done by fall 2012 but you never know with me. I started a project building a swamp buggy and planned on taking a year to complete... well 68 days later I was in the glades having a ball.... just depends on cash flow mostly.

Personally, I think that color looks much better on Frank's Bronco than it ever did on an Expedition.
Was the Light Prairie Metallic the factory 2-tone option, or just a random color you guys chose?

I also liked the color close to that tha was offered on the rangers for a while... could be the same color but Iwill have to find a color book and have a look. I think it was in the late 90's....

Very nice. I would love to have that much land and space to do that, don't forget you still need to pour that concrete slab too.LOL I'm pushing my work on the EB cause I have a son on the way in March, then I know I won't have any EB special time, expect to drive it. Go Green!!

I can't post pics right now( pictures on an external hard drive and I'm better with brakefluid in my eyes setting timing, than trying to figure how to post pictures).
Mine is Mid 90s Ford Deep emerald green. Clean it is beatifull. Dirty it looks like a $10 paint job.
