About the ford N paint, I discovered several years ago as I was re-doing M old "Cora" that the early ones had a darker gray and the only place I was able to get it was thru Orschlen Farm Store in Missouri. Thier"s was made by Vansickle Paint Co. in Grand Island, Neb. and at that time they only put it up in gallons so I got two gallons down at Houston, Mo. and still have a little left. The gray on the 8 Ns was a little lighter. Most all Ns I see at shows they have used the lighter gray. I wrote to Vansickle Paint one time and got a answer back and He said it was called Battle Ship gray to start with. I don"t know if this is of interest to anyone but just thought I"d throw it in. Just started snowing again here (East Peoria, Ill.) I can"t hardly wait till mushroom time. boy its cold too. Pat. P.
