Color for a 29 truck?

[29 model-a]

What colors came on the 29 pick up trucks thanks Pete

[BRENT in 10-uh-C]

Rock Moss Green and Black

If it was part of a fleet, it could be any Model A color. I don't know how many vehicles makes a fleet.

Question: How many Model A trucks did a costomer have to order to have them painted a special color?

And Gunmetal Blue, and L'anse Green.

Get the judging standards, they're helpful to the original poster!

If you're in Iron River, you almost have to go L'anse Green for the home team, don't you?

With straw wheels?

Wheels would have been black from the factory, but straw is nice too

You are correct Sir. I apologize for the incorrect information given from memory.

I'm restoring the truck only for a driver but thought it would be nice to have a original color. Thinking rock moss or gunmetal blue thanks Pete

What are the rules for choosing a color? I have a 28 rpu that i'm restoring, and i know the color choices were Rock Moss Green, Black, Gunmetal Blue and Commercial Drab. Is it ok to choose another color that was available on any of the other 28 models? You guys that own 31 commercial vehicles sure are lucky.

I find the stock colors very pleasing, especially the rock moss green, but if you aren't going for high point judging, you can paint it any color you like. If you plan to sell it later you might have a slight reduction in value though.

The reason i ask, is because i see them painted in almost any color from the model a era. Red sure does seem to be popular. I gotta think about this one.
