: My 48 CJ is painted a dark green, which is not shown on the 47-48 color combination chart. It also has some yellow paint on it in some spots (less than the green) but it's very rough. I'm suspecting the original color was yellow, since the dark green is not an option for that year. I like pasture green. If I paint it pasture green, how badly will I reduce the value of this Jeep someday when I want to sell it, and it isn't painted an original color?

I agree with rocnrol. I just completed a '47 2A restro. and it looks very much like the one on the page header. But mine has the "correct" repo seats from Beachwood :). Go for the color you will enjoy lookn' at for a lot of years.
