In those days Chrysler Corp was prett smart: a customer could order anything they wanted off the options sheet! That included ordering trucks with car specific paint. Check the Auto Color Library for 1070 Dodge car, not truck & you'll find your color:

Gold was a specialty color for Mopar starting with the '57 Plymouth Golden Commando, but was also seen earlier on Chrysler cars. Throughout the years it has been a color available on most anything Mopar built, including 1970 Dodge trucks. The exact hue or shade of gold didn't vary much but yet it was year specific.

Back in my Junior High School days my best friend's mother had a '57 Plymouth Golden Commando convertible, 3-2's & a 4 speed from the factory! Gold with a cream white ragtop, cream white leather interior, a car to die for. His dingaling sister washed the car one Saturday and wanted to get it REAL shiny for mom: she used Comet Cleanser. Oh'm'Gawd no, no, no......
