Re: paint for my minor van

Re: paint for my minor van
It is a proper colour for a 1960's van. I supplied one a few years back to a customer who wanted it in an original type colour but not that vehicles own Rose Taupe, which can be an acquired taste for some folk. The only chioces were, I think Almond Green, Cumulus Grey, Rose Taupe or primer for 1966... May have been a white too but ref books at work.
Here's two (not mine):

It's a lovely colour - probably my favourite - although my Trav is OEW. Just the paint code chart lists other greens for 'Commercials'.

I think it was later 60s when LCVs went their own way on colours and greens such as Connaught and Everglade appeared.
