Re: COPO fleet colors?

There was also that lime green, like fire equipment, another green that was kind of trick looking like a candy apple green. There was also pink, such as the one member Already Gone had. They weren't COPO, they were in the line-up, or a factory special addition and only in Canada.

I've had a couple "special paint" trucks, mostly gov't/municipal. One even had the wheels painted a special red. It was a '69 C/20 Stepside 6cyl/Powerglide with AM radio and gauge options. It was a light grey with red wheels. It never had lettering and I bought it from the original owner. But, we have Southern States, which is a farmer cooperative type supply business that always ran those colors. There were markings on the wheels when the original tires were removed.
