Well that's a shame you don't have the truck anymore. I sold my 1949 Ford business Coupe when my kid was born. I really didn't need to sell and now I realize I should have been more patient and kept it. As to color (you'll love this) my F8 paint code actually decoded to Meadow Green. I originally planned to go with that color, but after searching every square inch of metal I could find no meadow green. After talking to some experts, I was told it was not unusual to pull a truck off the line before paint and send it out in primer. Once the owner took possession, the owner would have it painted in proprietary colors of the business or in this case, the fire departments color of choice. So in the end I settled for ford Candy Apple Red single stage polyurethane from Summit Racing.
