paint on it... we've found three different colors so far. The paint code 
on the body tag is 740G. I am many miles from my reference materials. 
Can someone tell me what color this truck was originally? --Bob"

Craig replies:
740G is a two-tone code.  The body color was 714 cardinal red and the 
stripe 726 cameo white.  Re the stripe - I'm pretty sure, but not 
positive, that the stripe was cameo white rather than pure white.
