Just got the latest news, it still hasn't cleared US customs and is sitting in the rail yard in St. Louis :angry , probably won't be delivered now until Monday the 4th, one day after leaving to go back overseas :argh:... So I won't get to see it now until March 2010:angry......Will have to have my buddy send me pics......

Great info, cheers...

Sounds reasonable, don't think they would take days or months to paint all the vehicles the same color, would be a total waste of time and manpower, but I do remember painting rocks in the marines, so who knows...

Thanks again for the info, as of 12/28 container has not arrived in St. Louis:argh:, it was suppose to hit the US coast on 12/16 and delivered 12/21. I am coming back from Christmas holiday tomorrow from Texas, hopefully I will get a call in the next day or so, I head back to the middle east on 1/3/10......

Darn, :argh:.....bollocks isn't anything easy? OK still trying to figure that out, what would of been the changeover date or what colours would be appropriate for that year?

It is a 44 manufactured Scout, and was a ground up restoration, haven't been able to tear into it yet, so it is safe to say that the brown would be more appropriate..cheers...

Thanks, any info on the proper color of silver or white or exterior color, would olive drab be appropriate, most of the pics I have seen have been a flat color, and mine is glossy. Also I thought the color silver was used up until 42, was it used later? I want to get it right and have seen both colors used in some of the museum vehicles.

Finally taking delivery of my Humber Scout next week :yay:, I have some minor work on it to finish it out. 1. skid plate on chassis 2. internal map/lube chart holder 3. sten mag holder over escape door 4. sten mag holder behind commander 5. straps for bren drums 6. handles with stops for roof sliding doors 7. head rest for driver 8. movement of water bottle carrier and manufacture of 2nd one 9. straps for smatchet and wire cutters 10. installation of 19 set and ancillaries 11. dreaded PLM mount etc... I am going to respray the exterior and interior after all the new parts are made/fitted. Question is, what color should I use on the exterior and interior? I know they used silver early on and then went to white, but what type or color would work the best and be the most durable for both exterior and interior?
