Paint question

[rjkinney]

I have purchased paint chips for my 1948 201. There is the Milori green a Dark Red and a Lite Red. I have read somewhere that the wheels were the lite red and the body was the dark red. Does anyone know if this is correct?

1940 DIAMOND T TRUCK DUPONT PAINT CHIP CHART that is for sale on eBay indicates that the LITE RED PAINT is for the WHEELS.
DUPONT Delux LITE RED ( WHEELS ) 93 – 1286 – R ; DUPONT Delux RED ( DARK ) 93 – 1308 – R ; DUPONT Delux 93 – 1590 MILORI GREEN ( MOLDING ). NOTE: THE ABOVE LISTED DUPONT COLORS FOR THE 1940 DIAMOND T TRUCK , ALSO USED FOR THE 1939 DIAMOND T TRUCK.

I wonder if the same would apply to a 1948? Also wonder if the brake drums would brake light red also?
