[iwantmud]

I need help identifying the color caveman paint one of his trucks. I would ask him but he hasent been on in 5 months. Any ideas on the color and paint code?

Olive drab...? What do I win...?

 

[iwantmud]

Not green enough for olive drab. I'm think it's flat dark earth. But you get a thumbs up for trying.

You know there's are quite a few shades of od green...? Check out a website called TM9.com. They show most of the military shades of green. Can I at least get a cookie...lol...

 

[iwantmud]

Ok thanks. Cookie is in the mail.

 

[gungearz]

Lol... Thank you and by the way, please don't send a couch cookie.

At TM9 Ordnance Products - Paint for Vintage Vehicles and Equipment look at the bottom of the page for:

Dunkelgelb RAL 7028
An authentic WWII German color shade used from 1943 through the end of the WW II in the Western Theater of Operation. Replicated from an original Paint chip.

I don't trust colors on computer monitors but the truck and the chip look awfully close on my screen.

Somewhere there's also a thread on Israeli colors and it could be close to one of them. That one got matched at a hobby shop paint display, I think.

You can also always take a small part to a body shop and they can color match it with their scanner or if your a house paint guy just take it to Home Depot and they can do the same.

Looks like the WWII shade 34087 to me.
