[FC] 1961 FC paint code decoding

[Darren Pralle]

1961 Rampside, Paint Code: 727G - Original color is Tampico Turquoise
Metallic with a White stripe.  If you want, I can send you a photo of the
original paint. The respray was not thorough and the section behind the
rear bumper is still original paint.

The thread below from CorvairCenter also may include some useful
information:
