Post your green truck!
 

Hello forum!

I'm about to get my truck painted and I'm thinking green (duotone w white). But there are so many shades and I've no idea on what color code to go by. So please, show off your green truck and if possible, include the color code.

Cheers!

There ya go. That's it. Beautiful truck!

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Thanks Special K! It was a lotta hard work but well worth. :chevy:

Re: Post your green truck!
 

This is mine. 1972 C20 with a paint code of 505. They're a lot of work when they're in the condition mine is in, but I wouldn't sell it for anything. It's all big bolts and no computers. I love these trucks!

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Nice truck! Makes me think about a lift kit now.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

I know what you mean, here's a couple of pictures of my truck as it stands. Can't wait to get it painted.

Dark green. 505 is the code.

My truck that is in the avatar is used to be 503 green.
PO painted over it with What looks to be John Deere green
It’s pretty close to the same

Rain Forest Green

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Meadow Green(518) & white. There are paint charts that abbreviate it to Med. Green, but the brochure shows it as Meadow Green, not Medium Green.

Here’s a pic that I took today. It ain’t pretty, but she runs like a top.
The blue tarp is to keep the interior dry til I make time to get the new windshield put in.

Interesting and confusing. I think it was called meadow green in maybe 67-70? Not 100% sure. My SPID spells it out as "Medium Green".

1972 GMC "Medium Green" with a black top. Not sure what color the dark green front fender is. It's a replacement after a wreck.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Can I post a picture of my Maroon truck which was originally Yellow Green Poly AKA Medium Olive?

Re: Post your green truck!
 

518 = medium green (SPID) = Meadow Green (brochures, etc)

518 = SOLID med green paint
548 = Conventional Two Tone (i.e. 518 primary/521 secondary (roof))
484 = Deluxe Two Tone (i.e. 518 primary/521 secondary (roof and sides))

brown7373, as pictured, your truck should be RPO 484 paint - and your statement is spot on as it is 518 + white

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Same as the '69- '70 Sublime Green. My son went from Top Banana Yellow to Sublime Green after his car got hit. Some kid wanted to buy it, and when he and his mom came down the street, it was easy to spot from a couple of streets away! :lol:

Re: Post your green truck!
 

if olives count as greens, here are my past and present:
71 C20 Cheyenne Super Custom Camper 504 code (solid med olive)
72 K20 Cheyenne Super 557 code (custom two tone 506 dark olive primary with 504 medium secondary (top) - it's missing the medium olive top at the moment :)

meduim olive and white

Re: Post your green truck!
 

It's a custom but it's green👍

Re: Post your green truck!
 

My truck is in my avatar. It’s been repainted years ago so the color I don’t think is quite right. I’d have to look at spid but I’m pretty sure the original color is medium green.

What hosting site are you guys using to post pics?

Re: Post your green truck!
 

506 Dark Olive - very old repaint - 20+ years

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Here’s my 72 K20 Cheyenne a couple years ago when I was bringing it home. Originally 557 medium olive over dark olive.(medium olive missing now) Olive interior

Here is mine , pics are a month old.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Did someone say green?? I support that idea!! I have the paint codes on the cans (buried in the basement) if you are interested. Basically I tried for a metallic 503 green in a standard paint mix.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

This truck is sweet!!!! Good work. :metal::metal::metal::metal:

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Well.....it used to be more green I imagine...

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Thanks, I appreciate that info.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

My tired old green paint.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Don’t know the color code, P.O. had it done. Definetly nicer than original medium olive/yellow (576).
Getting a 700R4 next month.

Re: Post your green truck!
 

Interesting. 1972 brochure calls it Meadow Green. My SPID has it abbreviated as Med Green. I had never seen Medium spelled out...then again I never really "investigated" it.
