Bahama Yellow and Rallye Green were special order paint colors on 69 Road Runners prior to their mid-year debut (which has nothing to do with A12). A zone manager in California is credited with pillaging the colors from Porsche and Chevrolet in October of 68 and having them applied by the factory under special paint code 99 99. This was localized to LA built cars in late 68 with Chrysler joining the fray in early 69 as they intermittently rolled out their new color offerings (again, not A12 related).

My book goes into great detail about the special paint colors on 69 Road Runners.
