Trying to pick a color for my 62 Plymouth wagon. I've looked at a lot of pictures (a lot) . Can someone tell me if 1969 EL5 Bahama Yellow / Butterscotch is a soild color, or does it have metallic in it ??? So hard to tell from the pictures on the internet. Thanks I also like Burnt Orange, there two different paint codes for Burnt Orange K5 & K3 are they the same color ?????

K3 and K5 are different colors. K3 is lighter than K5. Burnt Orange and Dark Burnt Orange metallic. My car in the picture is the K5....

Butterscotch/ bahama yellow was coded on the fender tag in 69 as either 96, 96E, or 99. (Mine is 96) it was a half year/late year color, seen on a variety of plymouths but i understand only on sixpack superbee dodges.
The color was discontinued for 70, and brought back for 71, as L5, with no paint code change from 69. So the paint became EL5 on the fender tag, the "E" signifying a 1969 carryover color. A new 1971 color would have been Gxx, if the mix got changed. Thats why FB5 and GB5 might be different mixes.
