Default Car color 1935

Is there a site or link that actually shows the colors on a 1935 car. The model A site has one posted by Marco.

The colors are shown on page 32 of the club's 1935-36 Ford Technical book. If you do not own the book but own a 1935-36 it would be well worth your $30 to own a copy.

Which color in particular are you looking for? If it is vineyard green I have some body panels with original vineyard green paint.

I am not much on green cars, but I have always liked the Vinyard Green on Fords

These two '35 Fords were both at this years EFV-8 Club Eastern National Meet in Charlotte, NC, and next to each other on the Concourse for judging. Both cars are supposed to be Vineyard Green in color. Which one would you think is closest to the actual Vineyard Green used in production by the Ford Motor Company in 1935?
