+1! A rare Mustang color Pete? Can't recall seeing pics of one in that color.

Not my first color choice but a nice-looking car none the less. Great pics of course.

Geoff, it's one of the three Grabber colors Ford introduced in 1970.  This one's Grabber Green.  The other two are Grabber Blue and Grabber Orange.  I don't think Grabber Green was very popular.  I don't remember seeing many 1:1s in that color. Here's the trio together:

@pete-rovero thanks Pete, the 3 look great together. The 1:1 looks a little lighter. Magnificent vehicles all!

I think lighting plays a big role in how color is perceived. John’s pics more closely matches the real color. My pic was taken around midnight on the kitchen counter under fluorescent lights!
