Guest 57 pontiac Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 I have a friend that is redoing a 1948 jeep and he asked me if I knew how he could find out the available colors for his jeep in 1948. I know someone out there will have the answer. Could you point me in the right direction of you don't know ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 57 pontiac Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 oops, that should have said "if you don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 I assume that this '48 Jeep is a Jeepster. So this is from memory, I'm not sure that all colors relate to all years - mid yellow, red, burgandy, black (maybe), dark green (maybe).<P>Here are a couple of links that may prove useful also: <A HREF="http://www.jeepjournal.com/jeep101/ny/h101jptr.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://www.jeepjournal.com/jeep101/ny/h101jptr.htm</A> <BR> <A HREF="http://48-50wojeepsterregistry.8m.com/" TARGET=_blank>http://48-50wojeepsterregistry.8m.com/</A> <P>I've always liked Jeepsters but never took the plunge.

novaman Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 the colors are red w/black, yellow w/black, two tone green (upper looks almost black), two tone blue (again upper looks almost black) and soild black. If you would like I should be able to come up with the color numbers. I'll have to hunt through some of the stuff my dad still has from when he had his '49 Jeepster.

Guest 57 pontiac Posted November 27, 2001 Share Posted November 27, 2001 The jeep that he has is not a jeepster but a CJ > I don't need the color numbers, just the colors. Would these be the same as the Jeepster. Thanks for the info so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted November 28, 2001 Share Posted November 28, 2001 I can get the info for the CJ, and make sure of all the color options but I have to do it tomorrow night or next monday night. I have a friend with paint chip books all the way back to the early 20's. He is a bodyman as was his dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
