I think mine was a very early 1953 and the original color was Jasper Green.

I was wondering if anybody has chosen this colors and has some pictures of it?

Just trying to imagine what it would look like:)

Thanks guys

Hi rcolijn,

I hate it when you just don't get ANY response so that's the point of my reply. :)

But, I haven't tried that color. If I'm remembering correctly it is a bluish green.

Mine was the original forrest green color, and is now blue (painted by the previous and original rancher owner). I had always thought I'd go back to the original green, with black windshield, and put on a black softtop (only color avail now in Tigertop), but in the last year or so I am getting too comfortable with the current blue. Problem with that is I don't think I'd like the black top on my blue Jeep, and my white top is wearing out.

Maybe the Jasper green would give me a best of both worlds. Good luck in your decission.

Whoops! Guess I was thinking of Gulf Blue (I just looked at the paint samples page).

Jasper Green, hmmm, lighter, with black top, body color wheels, good contrast to a black winshield and hood blocks. My mind is going a new direction here.

Rcolijn,
I have a 54 that was "Granada Green". I just had Nason mix up a batch of the same color and plan to shoot the Jeep next weekend. It appears to be alot darker than "Jaspar Green".
