What is the color code? A lot of the color charts show generic names, rather than the official color name such as Caribbean or Frost Turquoise.

Which, with it's natural fade, does appear to have more green in it, at least in pictures.
In most lights it does still look more blue.
It's a great Bronco color actually. Very popular back then, but not one of my faves at the time. Now it's hard to imagine Broncos never having come in some of their early popular colors.

Taken at the same time, in the same light from two different angles:


And back to blue:

And it's chameleon act, trying to look turquoise:


Caribbean Turquoise is one of those too. Kind of Gumby looking back in the day, but truly stunning on a restored Bronco these days.
