Manac or M101 Paint

[Alain.C]

Here is a pdf for the camo scheme.

Doesn't say the colors in the pdf, but the numbers are:

1 - Black
2 - Green
3 - Brown

Use a brush for the authentic look. It wasn't pretty but went on pretty thick! You can feel the edges of the paint from colour to colour and in most cases see the brush strokes as well. Good luck sorry not sure about the actual colour codes...

Casey..... As discussed earlier on this forum, there is a 67 M38A1 right across the street from you and as far as paint colors, we can get them matched, whether you spray them, brush them or put them on with a roller. All you have to do is call me or come on over. Robert

Yes I know Rob been a tad busy with work colours are not for me...I went with the drab flat dark black green. I will come over maybe this weekend if you are around...? Casey

Hey guys, there is a difference between the early 3 colour cam and the modern 3 colour cam. The more recent 3 colour includes 1 green, 1 brown and 1 black, unlike the 70's pattern of 2 green and 1 black.

The old 3 color cam is totally different form the NATO cam. I have the early cam pattern for 3/4 ton and 1-1/2 ton sitting before me here, and it looks nothing like the pattern that Alain shows for the US M416 trailer.

I'll scan and post it later.

An M100 trailer would be appropriate for the '67 Jeep. I can attest to brush painting Jeeps at my old reserve unit. On the other hand if the trailer went through a workshop or service battalion garage, it would be professionally spray painted. Either way would be accurate.

Here is a photo of the M101 and M104 cam pattern. The army did not spend a lot hiring the guy who drew this, but it should be accurate.

Wow, Rob. You are not kidding.
Do you know the correct order for the colour numbers 1,2,3?
I would assume 1= green 2= brown and 3= black and that these colours would be the 383 carc colours. Please advise.
