green and white or just green trucks - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

TXRANGER · 07-20-2008, 01:52 AM

Hey all.
I have a 71 LWB that has the original green and white 2 tone. I am wanting to see some other trucks with a newer green. If I can find a good green white color scheme I wont have to redo the interior. What you guys got? Thanks

**special-K** · 07-20-2008, 06:49 AM

Is yours Woodland Green(or listed as Dark Green),Medium Green(simular to Sea Foam),Dark Olive,or Medium Olive?All those colors look good when fresh.Woodland is the timeless forest green or hunter green that has also been a fleet color since the GM has made trucks.It`s the non-metallic.I ordered it on my`92.What color is your interior?

Woodland:

Medium:

Dark Olive:

Medium Olive:

They can look pretty bad when dulled out and faded.

I used to dislike green, but lately I've had a sweet spot for it. Here's a few more.

Jcentsr6 · 07-21-2008, 11:24 PM

Here is mine. Hope you like it.

TXRANGER · 07-22-2008, 12:52 AM

Thanks for all the pictures. I have got a few more ideas now. I am trying to go with a paint scheme that will keep me from having to redo the interior. The interior is the original green and it is in perfect shape. I will need to post some pictures on here.

TXRANGER · 07-22-2008, 12:57 AM

Here is what the truck looked like before I put the new bumper on it.

**RPOZ11** · 07-22-2008, 02:17 AM

For me, I have had several GM vehicles with that old Olive Green.

That Olive Green for ...ME... has tooooo much gold and/or yellow in it to satisfy me.

I like the Olive Green, but...

I am searching for a darker Green with no metallic in it that can have an even deeper feel and look to it.

This Woodland Green, I am looking for the color mix codes and more looks of it!!!

Maybe I could play around with the base colors when mixing it???

**RPOZ11** · 07-22-2008, 02:21 AM

[QUOTE=67_C-30;2814431]

Like this one!!!

**special-K** · 07-22-2008, 05:59 AM

I see the Medium Olive mixes vary more than any other color.I see alot of repaints with too much silver or just metallic.It should be almost a candy apple when fresh.
The Woodland Green has a tint of yellow to it.Although it`s a dark green,like forest green,It has a brightness to it when kept up.IH and ford fleet greens weredarker w/less yellow.Here`s my`92 I ordered in Woodland Green,same as my`71 Blazer I showed w/white soft top:

Here`s a mid-90s GM green that came on Vettes and S10s,called Fairway Green.It`s between Medium and Dark Olive...

Don`t judge Medium Olive by it`s tarnished and faded state.It looks awesome fresh,especially BC/CC.

moedaman · 07-22-2008, 07:53 AM

1970 Medium Metallic Green and 'off the shelf' White from my PPG jobber.

samwise68 · 07-22-2008, 12:54 PM

far from stock - Oliver Green tractor paint.

67L30WGN · 07-24-2008, 02:04 AM

P.O. painted my dk olive and white Cheyenne Super a solid green. I'd like to return it to the tutone someday, but I still love her.

**70cst** · 07-24-2008, 09:32 AM

Ok...how about the pre "GREEN" look? Once my bed and cab are redone (in process) it will retain the factory tuo tone green. (Light olive/med. olive)

The bed before it will be turned med olive green...

This is my truck before the body shop. I know she isn't very pretty right now but she is Green and she is in the bobdy shop for her very first make over. It's been 7 months and still have a ways to go.
