Color Question
I am painting a '30 truck and know most came with Rock Moss Green but I think that's somewhat drab looking.
Can anyone tell me what color this pick-up truck is ? Thanks in advance. Last edited by Mikeinnj; 10-06-2014 at 12:40 PM. Reason: Sp. |

Re: Color Question
Hard to tell with a computer picture. Also depends on who mixed it and was it a light gray primer or black that was used. Looks like a nice truck, maybe a little on the lighter end of the different Rock Moss Green paint jobs I have seen.

Re: Color Question
It sure looks like my 28 Tudor which is vagabond green with (darker green) rock moss green trim.

Re: Color Question
There is a color called L'anse Green, named after a Michigan Upper Peninsula town that Henry himself frequented in the old days. It is a little lighter than Rock Moss, and may be what is pictured.
