As for the final paint colour, well when I removed the data tag I was pleased to see that the 1950’s army painters led the tag in place. I was greeted with pretty much NOS SCC2. A fellow restorer/hobbyist put me onto the fact that RAPCO paints Camouflage Field Drab Brown 30118 was a near match to the paint used on the 1943 chorehorses. Thanks also to a couple of OMVA members who had gone to the MVPA convention and picked up the paint for me.
MLU and the hobby is a great place.
