Have fun with this. The color formulation spec changed and the color code numbers didn't. Arguing "correct" color is almost as good as an oil thread.

I shot my truck, a '52, with the incorrect 24087 semi-gloss green, not a flat paint, so the water tends to run off better than from a flat paint. It is a moderatly dark paint, and has weathered well for the past two years. I bought my version from Gillespie. Thinned with Xylene. A picture of my truck shows the paint.

I just contacted Midwest Military and bought the paint they make for 1952. I'm sure they know and have it.
