Hard to tell from pic.

Appears to be Caribbean Turquoise and Wimbledon White... but post a picture of the warranty plate and someone can decode the colors to be sure.

Edit... I just realized you typed, "colour" and it hit me that your Canadian, I think Canadian trucks had different color codes than US ones but I could be wrong; unless your truck is from the States.

1961/65: The VIN and all the codes on the Rating Plate are Canada only.

1966: The VIN and all the codes on the Warranty Plate are the same as US trucks.

1966 US/Canada COLOR codes BM: B = Caribbean Turquoise / M = Wimbledon White // HM: H = Sahara Beige / M = Wimbledon White

Note: There is another white, if the COLOR code is C instead of M, it's Pure White.

Gaudin Ford is still in Las Vegas (NV) today. At one time, there was also a Gaudin Ford here in LA LA Land.

Yes I googled gaudin Ford when I first purchased the truck a couple years ago, I decided to keep the original dealer badge & put back exactly where it was.
