What colors are my truck?

Almost finished with the metal repair on the cab of my 1977 K10.

The truck was black from the factory with a redish color interior. The SPID in the glove box was long gone when I got it. The PO had it painted some ”70’s green” in the early 80’s. His thought was that it would make the truck ugly so no one would steal it. Well I painted it old aemy green to hold me over and now want to repaint it back to a 70’s green.

What color does it look like to you??

GM 517
GM 568
GM 41

How about the interior??


I want to keep the inside black and red and put the outside back to a similar green to what he had.

Here are some old pictures:

Thanks for any help

Re: What colors are my truck?

Looks like it's the same color as Gregski's truck named Rusty. It's somewhere in this list of threads. He can probably tell you which of those greens he used for touch up. Any chance of going back to the factory black? Looks like your dash and jambs are still black. That with the red is a classic combination.

I did PM him and his is the first GM paint code on the list.

It also looks qlot like Shorthaul’s project sweet pea.

Black is not really an option due to the use of the truck. I offroad and trail ride with it enough that I would ruin a black paint job and don’t really have the prep time for black.. Would be cool she left flint in Black and before sold to the original owner had a red pinstripe.

Your interior is most likely Red
