Title: 1952 Paint Color Bulletin 52-08
Post by: Bob W on December 25, 2008, 01:32:10 PM

Hi,

Anyone have the Willys Service Bulletin number 52-08 that lists paint colors? If so I'd like to purchase a copy.

Thanks,
Bob W

I have the 1952 Willys DuPont and Rogers paint chip pages.  What information do you need?

I was trying to find factory information about the different colors used in 1952. I do have a couple of paint chip sheets but I am not sure the aftermarket paint suppliers show every color that Willys actually used.

Thanks,

Sometimes the aftermarket paint suppliers show Spring colors that the original manufacturers would not have in their original introductory info.  You will usually find most of the colors in the paint chip pages and these were also used by the factory to relay to the dealers.  Few manufacturers issued their own paint chips but Kaiser-Frazer did for a few of the years in their data books but they were issued before the cars were announced and do not have Spring colors included.
