Factory colours

[cmperry4]

Yep, that's the same HUP - but I do confess I've been told I have a slight degree of colour blindness. Some OD might shift a bit yellow as it fades or ages. Whatever the factory paint job of the truck originally was, it shall be olive drab when I finally paint it.

I'm more curious about the parts that appear to have been painted in 'chassis black' - how much would have been painted like that before the military colour was applied? And would the engine have been factory painted 'Chevy blue' or some other colour, such as grey?

Meanwhile compare these two for khaki vs olive drab.
