    Hmmmm...:idea: Being as it is a Cadillac color, I would start with a GM dealer, and work may from there.

    Funny how guys on here are NAY about GM motors in their mavericks, but "where do I get it" on GM paint colors...:D

    When I got my car painted, I was worried about the color being too light, and it is. I have seen other Grabber Green cars, and they all look a bit different. I think it is one of the best colors on our cars, and when I get it done again, I'll get it a bit darker, with a bit more green, less blue.

    Look under late 60-early 70's truck paint colors. Might be a sea Foam Green, reef Green or just Turquoise. Ford had several colors close to that such as Swiss Aqua the color of my F100. I like that color. Might be a good one for my 72 if I finally get her home this weekend
