Question anyone with pics of trucks in the stock olive green color

I was wondering about people having trucks painted olive green. Mine is that color, I believe and was wondering what it looked like when it was in good condition. I think there is some metal flake in it....it looks like it, does anyone know??

Here's my 71 Burb with the original medium olive paint after I buffed it... This was taken when I first bought it... The bottom is what it looks like now.

My Longhorns Original color is like KTGOOCH. When I am done, I plan on repainting it the same color.

Re: anyone with pics of trucks in the stock olive green color

well, there's the green and white ones from another thread...
No idea who this one belongs to... found it on my hard drive

This one belongs to a member in the Cincinati area if I remember right.... I can picture him, i can hear him talking... I even know I sold him an inspection cover for that truck... (did you ever get it installed yet???) But I sure can't remember his name.


My man longhornJeff cookin some wings

I dunno why... but I have always loved that shot.
And then here's some solid green ones;
