I think I posted the Ferret paint scheme about a decade or so back, so I have it in my file cabinets at home somewhere. The Canadian ferrets were painted in a pattern of black/flat green/light off white in the late 60s/early 70s, and changed to the more standard black/flat green and Canadian olive drab.
Alternatively, depending on the time period you want to rep[resent, it can be in the British semi-gloss Green, or after repaint, the Canadian semi-gloss green (much darker than the US semi-gloss green and without the brown tint).
I suspect the CFR number stamped on the bins was to prevent swapping between vehicles. The bins were subject to damage, and the armoured corps was always big on presentation. Especially that long bin over the side escape hatch.
