Gunmetal Blue?

[bobgreco]

As you may recall, I am painting the yellow truck gunmetal blue as it was one of the orginal colors. (During disassembly, coincidentially, I found out that it was this color originally.)

The riddle of the day . . .

Why is it called gunmetal blue? It is actually a greenish gray color very similar to the engine color, although a bit darker. The color mix recipe does not have any blue in it at all. Mostly green with some yellow and some others.

Very weird, but it looks pretty nice.

Hope you all had a nice weekend and thanks a bazillion to all of you veterans!
