Let's see any 36-37 Colsons in original GREEN paint.

Post up pics of your Single bar, double bar or straight bar in original green. Not teal, but true GREEN! Thanks!

Mike, here’s my Orange and Green Post Office runner. Original paint (except fork). And yes, it has Schwaaaaaaann grips !!! (hope that didn’t make you throw up a little).
Love this bike; LWB, great rider. Probably incorrect badge, but so is everything on this build. Just built to retrieve packages. Only photos I could find . .

Wrong fenders,

Is that original paint?

I thought most of the paint was original, but I could be wrong.
A couple of things, the picture color isn't quite right, I have attached a closeup of the BB
I do believe there was a darker shade of green used for touch up at one time.

That looks like the primer or basecoat I've seen on '37 Colsons. Dang...Wish I had known it was available

Yeah. Green Colsons are cool.
