I have searched this entire site and cannot find samples of the colour chips. The ones I do find don't list Forester Green which was the default colour so I am sure if I trust them.
Any help? I have about five days to decide or Forester Green it is again.

I did a "search" and came up with nothing of value.
I never think of looking in Tech Tips. It is a good resource for sure and will start to look there first.

After looking at hundreds of pictures I have decided to go with the original Forester Green and Black.
It appears to be a classic. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 1,901 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 1,901 | darn I wish I could make up my mind that easily! But then I have a hard time believing a restored BLM rig is gonna garner many ooo's and ahhh's when it's all said and done, and after all this time and work I confess to wanting at least a few...  I like the whole Green and Black idea on your truck however and for the record... yes I'm jealous 
Give me ambiguity
or give me something else
