I'm new to this form of communication so bear with me. I am the proud owner of a 1952 1/2 ton with a least two layers of paint. The patina is actually a cool look, however I am looking for the original colors available when the truck was new. Something like a color sample sheet Chevy put out in 1952. Any suggestion? When I look for answers will someone be kind enough to email me directly with a simple tutorial for the flow chart to navigate my way to the answers I need? Thanks!

1952 Chevrolet truck Dupont paint codes and color chips. Click in the middle of each page and the page will expand or contract.

The colors are distorted by 55 years of aging, by scanning, and by display on a computer screen.

FredM,

Do either of those links lead to information about exterior paint colors for a 1952 Chevrolet 1/2 ton truck?
