Default Green Go

In June of 1969 I ordered a 340 Dart Swinger I belive the color was called Green Go. I do know that Dodge was giving really unique names to some of their colors, as in Plumb Crazy.

Anybody know for sure if Green Go was one of them, and does anyone know where I might find a picture of a 69 swinger that color??

'Green Go' shows up in 70-71 model years as paint code FJ6. I don't see it listed as an available 69 model year color, though. What was the year of the car you ordered, and are you sure it was in June?

In 1969, I can only find a handful of "high impact colors":
code-Dodge name, plymouth name
ek2-Go Mango-Vitamin C
el5-butterscotch-banana yellow
ef6-bright green rallye green (although its nothing like green go or sublime green.
ev2-hemi orange-tor red

Green Go/Sassy Grass were offered in 1970 and 1971, and the brighter J5-Sublime/Lime Light was offered only in 1970

The only greens i can find for 1969 are F3, F5 and F8 for 1969 Dodges, but none of them are light in color.
