The paint was so worn and faded, I couldn't be sure if it was white or turquoise. Same with the cowel, kind of a turquoise over white. None of the rubber had any kind of overspray or leakage on it (as though it was re-painted).
Does the SPID list special paint but no description or code? Could be a commercial fleet COPO type order. I had a '69 C/20 Stepside with no paint description or code. It was a light grey solid color not offered. The wheels were a dark red, even the spare, and there were factory chalk marks on the barrel area of the wheels.
