  Inherited my Grandfathers 1934 Ford Pickup and looking for a list of the original colors. Is there a resource for the original exterior pickup colors in 1934? Thanks!

  You might check a Salesman Data Book for Commercial Vehicles for 1934. It might be listed in there? Later books like my 52 had the color chips printed on the page, I don't think they had color chips in those books that early. But they may have listed the colors by name. Also check James Wagner Book on Ford Trucks. Lot's of really good information there. Also check the Ford Barn or google search some other Forums. One other way is to research old Ditzler, Dupont, Sherwin Williams or other Aftermarket Company, Paint Charts for Automobiles. Automotive literature dealers will have them for sale as does Ebay. They were used for independent auto body shops 5-10-20 years later for repainting automobiles and trucks that customers asked them to repaint. I found some very easily for my 52 Truck and they were very helpful. But a 34 truck might take some more searching. Good Luck!

  I have attached several pages. From a Feb. 1934 Ford showroom book showing the 6 standard colors as well as optional colors. See attached.
