I would like to bring up a critical point to consider about the colors of the Kline cars. Two of these six cars are coded - - special paint. General Motors had a change of colors in January of 1968 with Tuxedo Black (A); Fathom Blue (E); Grecian Green (H) and Palomino Ivory (T) being discontinued and the addition of Rallye Green (J); Corvette Bronze (O); Lemans Blue (U); British Green (Z).

With this change in effect as of January, Fathom Blue was discontinued and the only way to get a discontinued color was with a - - special paint code. The main point is that Grotto Blue and especially Island Teal Blue COULD NOT have been the painted color of these two cars because these two colors were still in the line up and would have a (D) for Grotto Blue and an (F) for Island Teal Blue. The - - special paint could only be a discontinued color or another GM color.

As of the last registry recorded, YS 8010 is the only Kline car not known and recorded. YS 8010 is the only car that COULD have been (F) Island Teal Blue. It is also possible that YS 8010 was a - - special paint and yet another Fathom Blue. After all, 8010 would be grouped and very close with the other two!
