MarkAubuchon Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 All, I am wanting to paint my 51 Dodge a green color that is close to the orginal.. Does anyone have or know what a modern color code would be? Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 30, 2012 Report Posted July 30, 2012 according to the green..is yours dark or light...Misubishi has a very nice looking darker green that is not metallic...just bought a gallon of that for a project.. Quote

Merle Coggins Posted July 31, 2012 Report Posted July 31, 2012 According to my Don Bunn book the Judson Green is only used on the Route Vans. You want the Dodge Truck Dark Green. I printed a copy of the paint chips from the DEPTCA site http://dodgepilothouseclub.org/know/...gcol/index.htm and brought it along to the paint store. I also took my glove box door for a color sample. they were able to make a call and get a cross for the Dulux 93-23796 number to a modern Spectomaster number. From that they could mix the paint I needed. I don't have the Spectomaster number handy. I'll have to dig up my stuff and see if I can find it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I dug out my paint this morning. The number on the can label is 42-GS372. That should be the Spectomaster number for Dodge Truck Dark Green. If you have a small piece with that green color on it, like a glove box door, take it in with you to the paint store. They can pull out the color chip of that color to be sure it matches. These are quotes from me, from a few years ago on a thread about the Jade Green color. My truck is the Dodge Truck Dark Green and it's the exact color of what it was originally. Here's the thread link. http://www430.pair.com/p15d24/mopar_forum/showthread.php?t=15575&highlight=Dulux Merle Quote
