Any one have any pics of the med-green trucks? I think it was code 518 or 548......not sure.......can you clarify also?

I think I just discovered it's meadow green i am looking for.

Are you talking about Medium Olive Poly?I have prints but no digital pictures.Plenty on here I`ve seen.I was repainting a truck of mine several years ago.All I got was"oh..." and "why?"back then.It was that color.I`m glad to see people these days liking these cool original colors.They just look right!

All I know is a code 548 or 518 and the glove box says med green. I saw a simi customed truck at a show yesterday with tan leather interior and it really looked good. I don't think it's the olive.

**special-K** · 10-16-2005, 09:48 AM

Oh yeah,it`s 518.Kind of a seafoam green.That`s a classic color.I think that was available on 67 through 72(and before).

BubbA GREEN that is really cool. Did you paint the underside too or undercoat?

**special-K** · 10-16-2005, 06:00 PM

I saw a nice one drive past While I was working on a house today.It was a 6`Fleetside`68,lowered,chrome side trim,and car rallyes.What really stood out was the top,wheels,and tailgate letters were pale yellow.At first glance I thought it was cream,but it was yellow and it looked really good!Like Grapefruit.

got lots of pics of this color truck in different shades of light and age, if you need more, let me know. I found this baby at a local swap meet, came from carolina area, original paint, dont see many original paints up here in canada. all that salt we use.

BubbaGreen · 10-17-2005, 06:33 AM

69 air cab....I undercoated the underside, not painted. This isnt a show truck, wont be a daily driver either.....weekend enjoyment at this point.
