MatchFuzee Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 3 references (but you really need to read it all) to yellow zinc chromate primer in BODY CHANGES MATRIX MB & GPW Darryl Deppe's Time line Olive Drab. Usually Red primer. However, some MB's dated Feb '42 have been found with yellow zinc chromate primer on the tub and front fenders. ( Doug. Ingram 2014) Please Note! Some Very Early Slat Grill MBs have been found with Yellow Zinc Chromate Primer Primer Used on VEP Slat Grill ( First few Months of Production) Black Primer or Combination of Black Primer and Yellow Zinc Chromate Source:- http://jeepdraw.com/PART_COLOURS.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty2 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Oké i didn’t know at that time but it was an early mb that would match the black primer on early Jeep’s 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
