1960's F-84G wheel bay and interior colours?

[Sir Desmond Glazebrook]

Hi guys. 1 model on my shelf of doom is the 1/48 Tamiya F-84. Before hitting it with paint I want to double check the colours.

Thanks.

I could be wrong, but aircraft of that era typically had chromate coated wheel wells. Not saying that is how the f-84 was.

I did some checking...

looks like wells were a olive toned yellow chromate, and cockpits were a more greenish olive chromate, later thunder streak/flash were more likely gray in color. Keep in mind, they flew these through the 60’s, so they were probably rebuilt and repainted a few times.

Thanks so much!
