Medium green/white top pictures - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Aussie_C2o · 02-06-2008, 05:10 PM

Hi there, I am getting close to painting my C20 and wish to paint it in its original Medium green/white colour combo. Unfortunatly When I imported my truck to Australia it was already in primer and as I rubbed it back I found the original green. I can't tell if its metalic or how it will look shiny as it was badly faded before they primered my truck? Anyone that has a pic of a finished truck in this paint scheme could you please post me a pic???

You wanted finished but I'm not quite there yet. Last week I purchased a dismantled box from a board member over in Wisconsin. Then I'll be done. (I know, yeah right). Anyways, here is medium green metallic and white.

can you tell that this guy is a family member?! my big brother, "bigdon-70blazer", is performing a frame off on a 70 Blazer and is painting it this very color. Once he has it done, be prepared to be amazed!!!

well I believe mine is "medium olive". actually that's what the spid says, so I think it's not the color your describing.

My dad's 70'. Sorry for the crappy pic.

68gmsee · 02-07-2008, 03:30 AM

Not sure who these belong to, but I copied them because they are the same color my truck used to be. And just in case I go back to it I wanted some incentive... The second truck doesn't have the white top..

BB72CHEVKT · 02-07-2008, 04:16 AM

this one is faded. oops no photo! see avatar

68GMSEE That's my pickup. Its the factory color White top with medium green paint. Here's more pictures of it and the SPID.

Aussie_C2o · 02-07-2008, 05:18 AM

Thanks guys. Mine is very similar to 70C1o dads truck. I didn't think that there was going to be any variables. Is there anything that tells me if its supposed to be metalic or not?

NYC-10 · 02-07-2008, 05:36 AM

Ilike 72"s · 02-07-2008, 08:15 AM

Thanks for the kind words. Let me know if you need more pictures. Dennis

BarryB · 02-08-2008, 07:49 AM

All the ones I have seen, that are original paint, did not have any metallic in the paint Just a straight color. I think that is what your originally asked.
