Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

Yes, dark olive green. Don't know the code. It does look a little more grey in that photo then normal. Had a polarised filter on, maybe the cause.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

First picture posting on this site, thought this would be the right thread. Pic when I bought the truck a couple months ago, and a pic from this past Friday. Doors are in red primer now, but still need to shoot the doors green and get the trim back on.

Seems like your painter should be able to get just about any color..... but I sure wouldn't complain, that's a very nice choice!

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

Finally got the point where mine is green again, instead of primer gray, and have begun putting it back together.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

Hope there's room for another Suburban. Here is my modern take on the 503 green. It is a PPG Essential color that was the closest match to the nearly 50 year old interior paint. It is a metallic color. Some assembly still required.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

I just purchased this 1972 Cheyenne C10 Custom Camper.
I've never seen a C10 ordered as a Custom Camper.
It was a one owner stored for years. Everything is original, including the tires. The canopy has never been removed. The wood bed is like new.

While very nice,IMHO your Cheyenne/10 truck is not a factory Custom Camper and the emblems have been added.
Chevrolet offered the emblem option on 67-69 C10s (with required options) but no later.
Any factory Custom Camper will have the rpo Z81 listed on the SPID.

Re: Olive Green truck Picture's

First of all welcome to the site. The board members on this site are very knowledgeable nice folks and always willing to help with ideas or helping you solve a problem with your truck. Very very well optioned and preserved truck. It's great to know there are still some unmolested trucks around. You just gotta luv the period correct accessories like the wrapped steering wheel, quilted dash pad, CB Radio and the tie downs on the outside of the box and the topper. What is the chrome dome like thing on the lower dash on the left side of the steering column and that brownish pull knob right beside it?
Please consider attaching some pics and info on the thread in the below link.
