My coworker Gary made me question if the lime green was actually factory

We were chatting during lunch at the break room in Toledo and he said his stepdad worked at a dealership back in 1996 that did a custom paint job on three of those cars for a local dentist. Gary pulled up a photo on his phone and the shade was way off, more like neon pea soup. I've spent 5 years hunting these things and now I wonder how many 'originals' out there are actually dealer repaints. Has anyone else found proof of custom orders that made them doubt their own sightings?

and honestly, people have been telling wild stories about special orders since forever, half of them are just stuff they heard from a buddy. Unless that dentist has paperwork or the actual car to prove it, it's just a story at lunch. I mean, even if it is true, one odd repaint doesn't mean every lime green you see is fake, so maybe keep hunting but don't lose sleep over it.
