Well I spent all day today painting the car. The base green is Khaki Green #3. At first I wasn't happy with the shade as I didn't feel it was green enough, however I compared it to one of the NOS marker lights going on the car and it matched perfectly. The black was Tremclad Flat black mixed with a fair amount of the KG#3 to tone down the black to the colour of fresh asphalt.
I still have to paint on the hood #'s and paint the bumpers white.
Did CMHQ London cars carry any other marking? I thought I had seen some where CMHQ markings on a vehicle before.
