Re: paint color number for M38A1
the paint question is for a 1952 M38A1, but were all the army jeeps the same color, I was told semigloss green and 24087 was the code. If you would please clarify.
Many thanks
Fred

Re: paint color number for M38A1
Your vehicle came from the factory painted semi gloss OD 2430. This is the standard color used 1950-1956. The color 24087, of which there are three different shades became standard in 1956. Paul

Re: paint color number for M38A1
The current 24087 is the darker semi gloss
OD which was used after about 56. The closest paint to 2430 is 34087, a greener semi gloss, and is what i use for M38s, early A1s, and early M37s.U. S. Army 28 years.
