Probably not. I have a 49, and searched for months on how to find the oem paint code with no luck. I got lucky and found some original color on the rear of the cab. Unless you have the build sheet from what I'm told theres no real way of knowing. If youfind out any different please let me know.

Thanks

nope.....best bet to learn original color is to look at the firewall or in places that are generally not painted during a re-spray.

Thanks. Looks like a Brewster Green or the GMC version. Very nice dark green. I think there were two dark greens that year. Some day it will be a color. For now its flat black.

Brewster Green was the standard color for 41-46 GMC's
Morat Green was the other dark green which was optional.
