I believe this is factory. Don't know about the codes, though. I believe the roof may have originally been white or gray. Anybody know for sure?

friend of mine used to have an 85 rclb that he painted to match his older brothers old truck, not a 2 tone but it had a cool stripe package, 3 stripes, white and 2 other colors (I forget now) that ran down behind the doors, about halfway down the door it got wider and zagged toward the front, ending in a point right by the front wheel. I've only ever seen those two trucks, but it was supposedly a factory trim package, according to him. Anyone ever seen one?

How about 3 tone? The CUCV Blazers and trucks came from the factory with the 3 color NATO Woodland camo. The paint codes were pretty simple too, 383 - green, 383 - brown, and 383 - black. Its so cool popping the hood on my M1009 and showing people that it reads "SPECIAL PAINT - CAMOFLAG" (missing the "E") on the SPID.

There was another thread here that showed big truck paint combos.
Last fall, we were in Boise City, Ok. during maize harvest. This one was sitting on the street. Couldn't resist a pic. No one was around or I would have ask to check the total mileage. Since it spent it's life only working about a month a year from farm to grain elevator, the mileage could have been as low as 30,000 or less.

I know the pic is crappy, but i found this at the junkyard 2 wks ago. It was white in the middle, and yellowish green on the top and bottom chartruse(sp). It`s sad, truck was all factory and complete, woodgrain dash and all.

This scheme is a little unusual. Typically, the grey and black are the other way around, with the grey being in the middle, and black on the top and bottom. I've only seen 1 other truck like this.

my dad bought an '84 new that was this scheme but the bottom was tan, haven't seen too many like it. He sold it back in 2000 though.
