Re: Manila Brown ?
My 31 roadster had brown paint under the layers of aftermarket paint....it looked like Moleskin brown to me....so that is what I repainted the car... I see there is a Ford letter than states that Deluxe Roadsters could be painted any color combination in 1931.

Re: Manila Brown ?
My '30 Deluxe Roadster is this same brown color. Does anyone know if this is a correct color? If so, what would the correct trim color and wheel color be?
BTW-I haven't purchased my restoration standards yet...soon. |

Re: Manila Brown ?
The roadster color on dlx models is called stone brown. Manila brown is on station wagons only. The colors look similar.

Re: Manila Brown ?
Stone brown is a light brown color and I have seen it several times, but my paint under the fuel tank was definatly a much darker brown....almost a UPS truck brown...I cut windows out of my color chips so I could exactally see the clolors together and it definatly was Moleskin brown...no doubt in my mind.
