I have found many shades of green on parts for mine!

Hard to know if the original paint the original colour, or faded, or added post ww2.

If there is a definite answer, it would be great to know... in the meantime, I will start with US Olive Drab for the 1944 period on the basis this is most likely the colour it left Chrysler with.
