1952 Project 1433

That's good information on Stovebolt regarding the 394 Trim code being Brown Leatherette. I have not seen a guide on trim codes anywhere.

What I have seen on the paint code is that RPO 234 is the code for "optional color". Could be any of the 11 optional paint colors. The "standard" color was Juniper Green. If the dealer or customer didn't specify an option (and pay more, I assume) the truck came dark green. If anyone has one of those trucks that was Juniper Green originally, I'd be interested to know what paint code (or none) is on the tag.

I have yet to see a way to tell which of the optional colors an AD would have been built with. Again--if you run across that info please post it.

It's interesting that there is no Regular Production Option listed for the pinstripe, which leads me to believe every '53 had a cab pinstripe as standard equipment. Every color has a corresponding pinstripe color listed. Even the standard Juniper Green would have had a Medium Cream stripe.
