I understand that the 1929 Pickup only had two options for paint color,Black or Green...and they are judged by that factor. What if a company...lets say a Fuel Oil company or any other business bought a fleet of 29 Pu's and painted them another color to match their fleet... and lettered them with their logo... how would this not be acceptable to a judge...Would Henry paint them for the customer if a quantity of vehicles were ordered? When would this practice have started? When was it an option for customers to order paint colors on Fleet vehicles? This question started out with only one question and ended up with 3... sorry...just trying to understand this hobby a little bit better!
Thanks so much!
