No, dove grey only came on dove blue buses. All other commercials after 58 got light grey caps unless Mcoded for chrome caps.
Huh, that's hard to believe because no one ever has the light grey for sale but you see the dove grey caps all the time and they re pop the dove grey ones but not the (supposedly) way more common light grey? Doesn't seem right to me. Here is a light grey double door swivel seat bus to keep the thread going. Cool

sled is correct(as mentioned). i would consider light grey caps less common due to the fact that there were probably more dove blue commercial vehicles produced than the ivory, light grey, and sealing wax red combined. nice original paint L345 stuff doesn't pop up often. i see dove blue way more.

Just finished the single-stage L345 enamel paint on our 1963 "Gus" in San Diego. Really happy with the results for a shop truck.
