Guest Devendra Singh Dhariwal Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Hi,In my endeavour of authentically restoring a McLaughlin Buick, model 28-25,now nearing the completion due to big help and guidance from fellow senior, David B, I seek help on dark trail green color. I have been able to find the original Trail green color, thanks to Jim Wells, a very light green with yellow hue. But cannot find dark trail green to be used in inset panel. Will someone please help me on this? I also need the correct Buick Vermillion for '28. According to Jim it's either Coca Cola red or English coach red.Please advice.Dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill - 29 Buick Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I have collected information and chips for 1929 Buicks. There is a Trail Green listed in an 'Acme White Lead & Color Works' chip but no mention of a 'dark trail green' being used in 1929. There is a 'Buick Vermillion' listed as an Inset Panel, Stripe and Wire Wheel colour but I don't have any chip reference. I believe Mac Blair may have some actual colour reference.
