Topic: 1934 Exterior Colors

  Hello out there,
I am nearing the point where I am thinking about what color I want to paint my 34 three window.

Checking references, I have discovered I have a few original colors to choose from: Black, Cordoba Gray, Dear Born Blue and Vineyard Green.

According to the EFV8 33-34 book, there were many other colors that Ford offered in addition to the four mentioned above.

Additionally, in checking TCP Global, I'm finding that Old Chester Gray, Blue Rock Green and Winterleaf Brown were colors available for commercial and export vehicles in 1934.

In the past, I recall reading somewhere that a customer could order any body style of car painted in any color that Ford offered in 1934 and that the four colors mentioned above were standard "assembly-line" colors that most cars came painted. I would like to expand my choice of 1934 Ford colors to other options in 1934, but I do not want my car to be a color that was not possible to obtain from Ford in 1934.

Can anyone clear up my question and if possible, supply I reliable reference to support their reply?

Thank you,
Tom
