Paint code

Anyone know what paint code 38 is, that’s all my id plate says? Looks like palisade green when I look at pics online, was that a color choice in 1950? I took the ashtray cover to Napa and they said the paint was too rough to scan, they said bring a better sample, lol the ashtray is the best! They didn’t have colors listings for 1950 and nothing came up for paint code 38. Any ideas?

That paint code is Canada assembly line specific.
I don't have 38 in my data - only a few guys here who specialize in Canada made trucks may have an idea.
