Paint Advice for my 69

Post by edmccloughloch »

I've been browsing around looking at paintjobs to get ideas for my 69 f250 - I found one on ebay that I really like -

The guy posts a copy from ford on the original specs for his vin number - it says it was an original two tone with boxwood green and wimbledon white. I don't know if there is a chart of ford colors anywhere online, but I wanted to see if the green in the truck pictured is the original boxwood green or a different color. Anyone know for sure that this is boxwood green or have a picture of the original boxwood green color?

Thanks,

Earl

Awesome thank you...I would love to see your truck! I think that is an awesome color on this truck - I'm glad that it is boxwood and not something else so that I can just tell the guy painting my truck that its boxwood....and its an original color too, which is what I want.
