I repainted a couple of CNJ MTH wood passenger cars. The color was close to the Rutland cars I was modeling. Rather than repaint the whole car. I painted just the sides and tried to match the car ends and roof window green.
I used Mission Models paints. Pretty user friendly acrylic. Plenty of green shades to choose from as they deal mostly in military colors. Most colors are flat. I bought a bunch of greens to cover any passenger car projects that came along. Pretty sure I started with a Dark Olive and altered it a bit with another shade of green. Not perfect but pretty close.
Of course this may all be for naught. Not sure the passenger car green would be the same as a Geep.
