Bedford factory paint colours
« on: May 25, 2015, 06:20:22 AM »
Over the years a few people have asked if anyone knows the paint codes/colours.
I stumbled upon these names but isn't a complete list, there is at least a baby blue missing

Turnpike red
Turnpike yellow
Glacier white
Woodsman green
Coast Ivory

If anyone knows any other factory colours and/or paint codes for these let me know and I'll add it to this list

Mine is 439-04785 and is a standard industry colour, on everything from International Harvesters to Bedford Trucks, via post boxes! Named (by my paint supplier) as Nuffield Red- but mine is a 4 m tray for an Aust Post contract. Hope this helps.

Cheers

The list i first posted was from the oz bedford brochure

Just a note on the post codes, not sure about in OZ but in NZ they don't have conversions for them as they were done in different weights; imperial vs metric
