Any pics? That would help

John Deere fleet truck?

**CPNE** · 01-21-2004, 11:40 AM

Yes but not out of the realm of possibilities. Does the glove box indicate any RPO pertaining to "special paint"? What is the paint code on the glove box option sheet?

I wouldn't say rare, just not real desirable. They is 2 of them in town that color combo. also one the opposite, green body yellow top.

Used to have one in the family with the green body and yellow roof. 71 or 72.

Mine was originally that color. Olive green top with the rest being "grapefruit yellow". Now is white on top with white between the chrome strips.

a board member posted a pic of a truck like this a while back.

I have also seen '71 and '72 trucks that are two tone light blue/navy blue. it looks nice.

**Canadian694x4** · 01-21-2004, 08:06 PM

...or more like this?

**Canadian694x4** · 01-21-2004, 08:07 PM

...a really nice truck...but the paint I guess is an aquired taste to sum...

Blue Beard · 01-21-2004, 10:09 PM

Never seen that color combination before........

FRENCHBLUE72 · 01-21-2004, 10:15 PM

WRMZ71 · 01-21-2004, 10:39 PM
