paint job ideas?

i'm thinking of getting a new paintjob and would like to go with a gorgeous forest green color. what is the best green color from 67-72? this link here shows you [ Color Chip Selection ] i believe this database is a reference for original ford colors:
desert turqoise
light green poly
medium green
lunar green
and carribean turqoise

What about "Reef" ? In my old Crayola's it's called "blue green".



Enjoy

My truck is the aqua reef. I like it and will repaint it the same color, but it is not really green.

I'm a HUGE fan of the boxwood green. I would've 2-toned mine that color with a white roof, but wanted it to stand out more
