51 ambulance,

That's an excellent link, but I'm wondering if the same source has colors for other years. I tried backing up farther into the URL with no luck. Do you have a link to some kind of index of those color chips? I'm looking for paint info for a 51 1/2 ton.

I'm sure this has probably been covered before but a refresher is alway good. That link came from the home site: www.oldcarmanual.com .
That site has an incredible amount of Chevrolet info as well as other makers. Try it you'll like it.
