Re: green and white or just green trucks

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.
