Mine is 79 Med Green Metallic. Its kinda crappy and faded, but if you at the inside of the tailgate pic you can see what it used to look like.

I have the build sheet here VV
79BuBuildsheet_zpsa9f23134.jpg

I think the code is 44 from what i see.
It was resprayed the original color at one point and its kinda shot now and some rust holes that gotta be fixed sooo..
We're probably gonna just spray it satin black for now and work on the drivetrain and suspension first.
Seems alotta people on the forums like the green for some reason :? Not your typical hot rod color I guess
go figure?? I guess if was shiny like the 2 door a few posts up there it would look cool.
My 14yr old son and I are working on it (not lately though) and he hates the green so we'll see what happens..

Ok that pic came out HUGE

^^I've always liked that shade^^. Since there's been some non-Gs posted, here's one my brother owned/painted. The color is called Avocado Green Poly. Had just the right amount of metallic to really pop in the sun. It's hard to tell in the photo because it was such a cloudy day. He got compliments on the paint EVERYWHERE he went.

when I saw the title I though someone turned into a tree hugger.. :wtf:

I think this is my favorite and I didn't know they ever came with T-tops back in the early years...if not for the T-tops it would be identical to the UMI Green Monster

Sorry, too late. He sold it a couple years ago. They're still pretty common in my part of the country though. He got it for a case of beer. Here's how it started:

Sorry for the tangent. Back to green cars.
