Colors on Town Sedan on Bratton's Catalog?
 

So a few months ago we had a discussion about the Town Sedan on the front of the latest (2021) Snyder's catalog. I believe we ultimately concluded that it was a Photoshopped picture of a possibly RHD vehicle that had been flipped and added to a location somewhere in the US. (Nice job, if that's what was done.)

Anyhow, I had the catalog out last night and my dear bride took a shine to the paint job on said sedan. Those colors don't look like anything from the original US offerings, but would anyone like to venture a guess as to what they might be? Since the car might be a RHD, those might be original colors offered over either of the ponds. I will be needing to repaint my '30 Town sedan, it won't be a show car, and it's always better to go with colors that are acceptable to one's roommate.

Thanks in advance.

Are you sure that is not Snyder’s catalog ?

Yes, of course you are correct, I'll edit the original post. Thanks.

The owner says he used Manila Brown with Chicle Drab


Here is a link to the owners restoration story.
