3a paint colors
« on: January 29, 2014, 05:56:43 PM »
Hi,I'm new to the 3a page and new to cj restoration. I'm currently working on a 1950 3a. I'm not to the paint stage yet but was wondering how body and wheel colors were connected. Only four colors were used on the 50 3a, were the wheels also one of these four colors?
