1940 Dodge Paint Color References (Body and Under the Hood)

[Guest thomasbarnett12]

Hello,

 

My name is Thomas and I am restoring a 1940 Dodge D14 Business Coupe.

 

I was hoping someone could help me answer some questions about paint colors.

 

I am keeping the car as original as possible (while still making it drivable, not a show car) so I was wondering if anyone could direct me towards a reference of some kind for what colors the various engine components should be?  At one time I thought I had come across such a reference but can not seem to locate it again.

 

Lastly I found an advertisement for my car from 1940 that I would like to model my car after but I cannot seem to find the paint color of the car that is in the attached picture.

 

I have searched the internet may times and have found many paint chip references for 1940 Dodge colors but have yet to see the color of in the attached picture.

 

Would anyone be able to help direct me to where I could find out what this paint color is?

 

Thank you anyone and everyone for your assistance.

That is a drawing. It MAY not represent any color used, may have been pre-production. AUtocolorlibrary should have chips for a '40
