Maybe not but that green is not far off from Campus green that varied quite a bit during its run and was used for several years as well as on Paramount's.

Dave at River City bicycles has a fabulous pair of his and hers in it.

Some of them are at least this dark and some are much lighter, this could easily have been a painter or body shop trying to emulate it and its not that far off.

This will polish out very well despite being rough so I would try and figure out if it started out Campus Green and strongly consider it moving forward.

It is a stunning color when in nice condition.
