Default 77 colors

Anyone have a color chart or listing for 77 Corvettes. Bought a new toy and was wondering what colors came on 77's??

The original 77 sales brochure has a three-page spread of an orange car with sport mirrors.

There was only one car painted Chartruse, per GM's production info. I've been trying to find a picture for years.

If you're not going to match the trim tag, you don't have to just stick with the GM 77 colors...
