Looking for pics of factory dark green trucks - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I know many folks aren't partial to green, but I sure am. I'm pretty sure that I want to go with the factory dark green and white (paint code 535), but I have yet to see one with the side trim and two-tone paint scheme.

If any of you have any photos of this in your archives, I'd greatly appreciate you posting some.

Are you talking about the older model 60‘s dark green, or the 66 dark green that is more of a turquoise?

Older model green, referred to simply as Dark Green. Paint code 505. It was 535 for the two-tone combo.

Second column from the right, third color down on the paint chart below.

I was looking just for a pic like that.
I think that is real close to what he is looking for.

Note: When I disassembled the truck I discovered 'new' paint under the washers holding the cowls on. It is awesome and I couldn't get a picture of it that reflected how it really looked.

**jayoldschool** · 09-09-2013, 04:52 PM

Tried to get that pic above to work... no luck.

ChuckW · 09-09-2013, 05:09 PM

I know it's not "Dark Green" But I thougth you might want to see something a tad lighter too??

Not factory but nice. My partner just painted it sat.

Heres another "Woodland Green". You wouldn't think it but for a solid color it really pops nice at dusk.

**66 C10 383** · 09-11-2013, 10:45 PM

I think mine is also the same color you're referring to. The PO painted over the tag inside and I can't read in but the best I can tell it's probably the 535 combo with the white top.

**LostMy65** · 11-10-2013, 01:12 AM

I think everything about this truck is perfect.

**Captainfab** · 11-10-2013, 01:41 AM

I agree....very nice truck.
