Very cool ...... someone painted it a lighter green, almost a JD green, the factory green was somewhat darker, and someone painted over the chrome "Job Rated" centerpiece in the middle of the grille. Factory wheel color was usually cream/ivory. I had a '51 which was very similar but the rear fenders were less styled, more of a basic fender shape from those times. The black pickup box was original on the basic factory paint jobs, I believe you paid extra to have the whole truck the same color as the front cab.
