Is this the olive color I see listed on the SPID? What's the official name of the paint color?

Longhorn Man · 05-01-2011, 07:57 PM

olive would be dark green

emil77 · 05-01-2011, 08:57 PM

Ok...

72freak · 05-01-2011, 09:01 PM

I thought there was a light olive metalic and a dark olive metalic...this does not look like either.

Sooo mine has been painted, eh?

FRENCHBLUE72 · 05-01-2011, 11:09 PM

Looks like a yellow sealer/primer?

Dupont Variprime as well........

emil77 · 05-02-2011, 12:23 AM

So it looks like my truck is supposed to be the same color of 70cst's? Weird, never seen a yellow sealer/primer before.

**special-K** · 05-02-2011, 07:45 AM

Tech primer

emil77 · 05-02-2011, 08:22 PM

Great, thanks guys. I guess the previous owner or whoever had it painted, they did a good job. So does this means it's "easier" to have the truck painted since it has a primer on it?

Anyone seen this color combo before? Med Olive/Yellow/Med Olive with a Yellow and Black interior and Yellow firewall. I bought it Grey. Found the original paint under. Had to have been one ugly truck in its day (this comming from a Packer fan)
