Hey from AZ

Completely new to this series of trucks...always wanted one. Searched locally (hey...it’s AZ) for a rust free shortbed and couldn’t find anything decent at a decent price. But I did find this! 1968 LWB CST with 81k actual documented miles. Bought of from the grandson of the original owner. Although it spent its early years in Montana it has spent almost all its time in Phoenix. Completely free of rust. I bought it as a non-runner...has been sitting for 10+years. It’s running and driving now. Kid thought it was a 307 but it is a 327 (3914678). It has a 2 barrel and a turbo 400. The paint and body is original as is the interior. (Some dumb ass cut the dash tho for a newer radio). I’m certain the glass including the windshield is original too. Can’t wait to get started (keeping it original except for 6 lug rallies). What is this color called other than light green?
