Re: Green trucks
Here's my 1972 stepside 4 x 4. The color is 518 Medium Green. I have thought of changing the color over the years (I'm the original owner), but if I did no one would recognize me around town.

Re: Green trucks
ok. All this green stuff is makin my head spin - and I thought I knew my greens very well.... rpatowers, thx for posting the name of the color. Not all are labeled, so I want to ask a question about 72 greens. As we're all aware, the "brochure" name is different than the "SPID" name of the color - kinda like Hugger=Red Orange, etc.
With the help of some previous posts and a very helpful color sheet for 72 from TimSS, here's what I THINK I know: 504 = Med Olive Poly = Willow Green 505 = Dark Green = Glenwood Green 506 = Dark Olive Poly = Spruce Green 518 = Medium Green = Meadow Green So, is any of the above incorrect? And am I misisng one of the greens? Were there 5 in 72? For example, if you look at rpatowers' medium truck - that is what I always understood medium green to look like. Med olive, dark olive, and dark green all stand out as easily discernable also. BUT, what green (paint code/SPID name/brochure name) is THIS green: (or is it a non-stock green?) To me, it kinda looks like the old neptune green from the AD trucks... maybe not drak enough though. Thoughts? Last edited by jocko; 02-11-2013 at 02:21 AM. |

Re: Green trucks
My junior year of High School (1990) I restored this '70 C10. I traded a TH400 for the truck body (it came to me without an engine). Wish I still had this truck and the others I fixed and sold over the years…
  I actually had two trucks in HS. I still have the yellow '68 GMC (it had a '67 front clip on it back then). Took every thing I learned about body work on the C10 then painted the GMC for a second time in 1993 which is the paint the GMC it still wears today.  Wish I had a better picture of how it turned out after I painted it   Sold the C10 in the morning and bought a ’72 K5 that afternoon. Same color too! Man, that was a long time ago! I think it was 1992??

Re: Green trucks
Two different shades of green. Stella is going into hibernation for the winter. Booger and I have some things to get done in the garage.

Re: Green trucks
My 2 green '72s put away for winter (along with the 2 '67 Mustangs). K5 is medium olive, the C20 dark olive.

Re: Green trucks
Here is my entry. Sputley looks rough, but she's actually in solid condition. The only rust is the surface rust you see. Those campers really preserve a truck cab. I thought I would post her because in a week or so she won't be green. I'm starting my build as soon as I get back from Indiana. 503 Lt. Green |

Re: Green trucks
Oh, you mean the green fenders on the truck, not the ones laying on the frame?
