Correct Red color?

the pics are a great indicator of the difference between the two spears and color differences. Which of you older gentleman have you seen original examples more of , and might be the more accurate?

hi Tom! How are you doing? Thanks for responding! I believe the blue was used on early trucks if I’m not mistaken? Our 52’s only have red accents, including the hubcaps. If I’m not misunderstanding that point- I have it on good authority that was the case. Do you have blue on your truck?

Hood trim and hub caps are blue, thought that was original.
