Anyone know this color green on an SC

Spotted a unique green SC Targa on the road and snapped a pic. Looks like it could be a stock color. Anyone know the name?

Sorry for the link to my site, just easier to post my pics in one spot.

A nice green for sure! ...but we would need to know if it is a repaint?
colors have a tendency to wander when resprayed..sometimes intentional and often not. So...go back stalk the guy and get us the 411.
maybe Conifer Green?

Cool and a local as well!

No clue, but hopefully somebody knows the answer.

Thanks for the link to your site.

I don't know who it belongs to, but I have seen it also.

olive !

hi, i had an 1978 SC targa that i purchased in 1992 in that colour with a cork interior, her name was olive, i am still sad when i had to sell her she was amazing with only 37,000 miles. I was told that this colour on a 911 was a mistake and that the colour combo was for 914's only ??

thanks
yves

After looking at all those greens I am thinking Leaf is what it is. Was a non-metallic for sure. Looked like a Crayola crayon.

If it was a 78 it was Olive green. I had a friend that ordered his from the Factory in that color. When I asked why it was because it was only one of the colors available that you could do a monochromic car. (The interior was green also, seats, dash, Carpet) he ordered it as a Non sunroof car. I don’t care for green cars but with Kim’s car you could eat off it when it was dirty. His serial number was about 4or 5 digits off of mine Petrol Blue car. Great car and a better person.

Are you sure it was an SC? Lars (Speedo) has a midyear (74-77) car that's really close to that color.

It's an SC. Unless someone added SC flares, but it didn't look like it. I only saw it briefly.

Pretty sure it's Olive. (different color from the longhood Olive, I think).
