The darker greens for the "L" series Dodge trucks are listed as Bell Green and Pontchartrain Green. The shades don't always transfer well from a 50 year old paint chip to a scanner, and then to your monitor. If you open up the chips in a photo program and brighten up the image, the Pontchartrain is the darker of the two. These paint chips are excellent reference tools for determing what color was available for what year. The paint codes for some of these earlier years can be found in 1968 and 1969 service bulletins. These show paint codes back to 1950.
