    I have been googling on a website with some Chevrolet 3100 info. Old ads, what paint/colors they came in, interior, options etc. Havent found much!

    "Autumn Brown", according to the info I've got, was a '53-54 optional paint color. Chevy offered 2 brownish colors in '48-49. They were "cream medium" and "sun beige" both of which were a lot lighter than the autumn brown.

    With that said, we've always had a saying on this forum and it goes like this: "You're paying the bills, so you can do whatever makes you happy!" If you like autumn brown, get some and go for it! Sun beige was my second choice if I hadn't fallen madly in love with Cape maroon for mine!
