The ID tag was painted over when the truck was painted some 35 years ago, and maybe the interior, removable panels as well. So where is a good place to uncover and find some original paint left? What were the OEM colors? It's currently a bronze/gold-tone

It's a half ton AK; appears to be mostly original other than the exterior paint - brown fenders and light tan/gold cab/box. Will be pulling the door panels today.

Maybe behind the fenders on the cab corner - likely didn't pull the fenders off to repaint. ?

Front fender underneath against the cab. Clean the dirt off and see what you have. Under the rear fenders the bed side maybe too. There are paint chips of the available colors in 1941. The tag does not give colors so you can paint any OEM if that's what you want.
