Technical 1951 GMC Paint Code help

A friend of mine has a 1951 GMC 100 truck, we see the serial number tag in the drivers door jam but can not find a body tag or anything with the original paint code. It is a green, I would say lighter green and sorry no pictures. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.

 

..those trucks didn't have paint code tags, get an original brochure.

 

Seems like most of them were green, others blue.

 

This is what TCP Global has for 1953 GMC Truck colours.

 

Thanks for the help. We found a chip book with '52 colors, guess we'll have to pick one and run with it.

 

No paint codes. I know that Chevy AD Trucks were painted a standard dark green and all the other colors were a extra cost option. So I ***ume that the same applies to the GMC NDs. Jim Carter Trucks has good info on the colors and they sell the paint. Another place that carries original color paints is The Restoration Shop. Check out their Auto Color Library.

 

JCMarz, you are correct. All Northern Trucks were Dark Green and Southern Trucks were Medium Blue, for Standard Color. GMC did have a few light Green colors available for 1951.

You might take a look on oldgmctrucks.com,quite a bit if info on there.

 

I have all the 50's truck color in my color library, if interested.
