How many 1970 NY are made in FP6 maybe someone here has some information.

CH41T0C103898 — thank you for posting the tag and for saving this FP6 NYer sedan from the derby. The H1P6 interior seems in nice shape, especially the tilt rimblow wheel.

New one on me as well. I've seen the color in the books, but never in picture. Thanks for posting it.
 
Frosted teal metallic exterior
A one year only interior color P6 "TEAL"

Very attractive color.
 
If you take the total production for that body style, then factor that down by the suspected installation rate, the actual production could well be in the hundreds?

Just a thought,

Turquoise (Q paint code) cars made up about 3% of 1970 Polara production (that’s a guesstimate; it is correct, though, for convertibles: @kmccabe56 posted official figures on the now-defunct Yahoo board, back in 2012, with 25 turquoise cars made out of either 695 US-market Polara 'verts or 842 total Polara 'verts that year).

I’d guess the same for the Chrysler equivalent (P paint code) — rare color, and even rarer combo with the teal interior. On the 1970 Chrysler 'vert side, off the top of my head I can remember one FP6 Newport 'vert (for sale in Canada in 2020 and again, by the same owner, in 2021 -- I seriously thought about buying it but got Regina FQ3 instead) and two 300 'verts (one of which was recently listed for sale in OZ).

To the OP question: I don’t know. What I do know is they should have made a lot more of those. It’s a lovely color.
 
The V1L beige vinyl top is the same combination as that made for a Q4 2dr 1969 Imperial that was for sale in Colorado a couple of years ago. Nice!
 
Wondering how many of that color combination were "Dealer Orders" (for their stock and/or customer orders) or which ended up being "Sales Bank" cars? With the Sales Bank cars being highly-discounted in order to get the dealers to take them? Which is where the Build Sheet might come in.

Just some thoughts,

I am surprised how much I like that color.
I've never been a fan of the torquoise color. But this really does it for me.
Looks so much better out in the light.
Is that motor it's original? Or did she lose her original heart and trans?
