medium green paint code 518
 
Any pictures of medium green trucks. The gm paint code was 518 in 1970-1972. Pics with and without the white on top of the cab would be great.
Thanks.

More pics... First one is mine back 1989. The others are some that I liked and copied for paint comparisons. Not sure who they belong to, but may be forum members.

mine looks like that "medium green" and yet my spid has it listed as "light green"

however it is a 69..might make a difference..?

Yeah... light green was entirely a different color and would resemble my '69 CST:

Attachment 459436

This was my paint code, per the order sheet: Paint - 14533AD White/Light Green

But according to this site, it would be referenced by: 530 - 43523 according to PPG

Also try this site...

those are some nice rigs there. I really diggin' the bone stock look with that green paint, which is a surpise, since I'm one who usually can't leave well enough alone!

question about painted front bumpers
 
My truck will be 518 medium green with white on top of cab. It is a 69 c-10 and the only trim left is on the back of the cab where the white will stop. I'm trying to decide on a white front bumper or green. Would the truck have had a white front bumper from the factory? It was originally light green with white cab top.

Yes I know this is an old thread, but hoping some others will post their vehicles with this paint code.

My 1970 Chevy LWB Step side. I was wondering what the color code was on it. Going to repaint it so wanted the original color.

Re: medium green paint code 518
 
Still think this is a great color. 503 Light is also really nice.
