Kinda hard to tell from the fuzzy pics, but it looks like Lunar Green, as seen on these '69 factory paint chip samples:

From about 61 the only differences from Ford trucks the Mercs possessed
were the hood letters, cowl tags, tailgates and DSO numbers. If you post the paint codes from your data plate someone will be able to help... or you could just check the individual year info elsewhere on this site.
