Jim Carter's Featured truck for the month ... 1950 Chevy COE.

We've had so many COE's in here lately, I thought you all may enjoy this which popped up this morning via email.

Maybe someone will know the color. Can always ask Jim Carter folks. We have these two email contacts for JC: Lynn: lruby@oldchevytrucks.com Tricia: thoneycutt@oldchevytrucks.com

816-833-1913

Says they are closed Saturday and Sunday. Could that be true??

It reminded me of Leo's Panel. Tried to find more pictures of it.

That color is familiar. Some one will know!

If it's an original color, it looks to be Mariner Blue. 1950 Chevy Truck Blue options

Click on the "G" on the first line when you open that link and it will take you to a google search of examples. One of the first ones is a photo of a COE on Jim Carter's website selling that paint.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

One can only hope, though, I'm not terribly interested in making it a show truck per se. Just an updated classic.
