Looking for paint color examples , dark moonstone

[smallblockpower]

I have a 74 Cuda painted in blue poly. The paint code is for dark moonstone. I have been searching for a picture of an e body in that color. Please let me know if you see a picture anywhere. I am going to return the car back to it's original color but would like to see an example. Thanks.

What code is dark moonstone metallic?

Is your roof that color also? Or vinyl?

Here is one in KL8 - Dark Moonstone Metallic.
Barracuda for sale in Colorado in E-Body stuff found on Ebay

@Cuda Hunter must have forgot that he posted about this one. LOL
@smallblockpower Post the fender tag so we can see how it was originally optioned.

Ahh yes. KL8.
I did indeed forget about that car from 2018.
That car ticked me off.

That's the picture I was looking for. Thanks. KL8 is the paint code. The car was original a white vinyl top car. They left the small trim tabs down by the windshield still attached.This car was completely repainted. The only original color I have found is on the trunk hinge and it is about 1" square and very light. 318 Auto w/ ac.

Thanks for posting!
That is a fantastic looking ride!

Original owner car none the less!
Just curious, did your family retain all the order forms, window sticker, etc. etc. etc. from the dealership when ordered or purchased new?
