Looks like Cloudmist Gray.

Joe, the 40 Woodie that was at springfield is Acadia green. http://streetrodder.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/wpid-20150523_090337.jpg

Oh, and I agree that looks more like Cloud Mist Grey. I like both. My truck started it's life Acadia green, and the insides still have that color.

 

[okiedokie]

Yes, a neat woodie indeed. Is there a place to get a touch up bottle of each? Or a realistic color chart? I would love to know which one I have. The floors and firewall have already been painted and I like the color. Hard for me to tell which it is. Seems like the cloud mist grey I have seen [and was told that was the color] doesn't seem as green.

My 40 wagon is Acadia Green. (see my public album)I got the sample from Color-ite when they still were dealing with paint. If your firewall picture is not overexposed it looks like Cloud Mist Gray to me. Acadia is darker and greener in my opinion.

 

[okiedokie]

Don't see a 40 in your albums deuce roadster. I will post a picture without the sun on it and see what you all think. Appreciate the replys.

Okie-there is a place to click on that says "show all albums" under the last shown album, it is still there.

More Acadia Green.

I cant tell the difference from any of the pictures. Its either the picture or my eye sight. I found online when I serched 40 ford factory colors a chart that listed all of them with a sample chip. The coupe we got now looks darker

Here's deuce's woodie, and a NICE one, too! DD

 

[deuce_roadster]

Thanks V8COOPMAN, I should have just posted a picture myself.

 

[okiedokie]

Sorry, I didn't answer your post about "Show all albums". I did see the picture. Here is a close up of my firewall that may show the color better. I guess it does look more like cloudmist grey.

Sorry< picture didn't upload for some reason.

 

[okiedokie]

Thanks to all I am convinced it is Cloud Mist Grey, thank you all.

 

[bchrismer]

Just so you are aware, Joe...I have said that if I ever wind up with a '40 sedan, it will more than likely be Cloud Mist Grey.

I'm a fan. ;-)

I REALLY like Cloud Mist Gray. I have a V8 (aka standard) coupe that came with that color from the factory. I think the non deluxe cars only came in 3 colors, Black, Lyon Blue, and Cloud Mist Gray.
