I am sure glad to see this DX-60 discussion.  Last year, I adopted a 
DX-60 off the Bay.  I built one as a Novice in 1963 and sold it for cash 
to put towards an HT-37.

My new-to-me DX-60 is a pretty nice one.  It's all there, original 
knobs, good sheet metal.  It needs to be cleaned up a little.  I'll 
replace the "killer" line cord with a three wire grounded one.

I am working on a 2nd DX-60 and need to repaint the cabinet.  I realize 
that Heath wasn't too particular about getting the exact hue so I picked 
up a can of green Rust-Oleum, 1934 - Meadow Green.  It actually looks 
like DX-60 green to me.

Is that "close enough" or does someone have a better suggestion for 
DX-60 green.  My paint job isn't the greatest so I might do it again.
