Vote for green and cream here. Had a look around to see if I could find anything in the colours you've got it down to and there's surprisingly little out there.    I reckon the third one of the above is the best for the shape of the truck. The red doesn't do it any favours. Second image of the green one demonstrates the weird doors these have quite well.
EDIT TO ADD: I'm aware these aren't Morrises, but they're all fundamentally the same truck underneath the badges and slightly different noses.

Looks like cream over green it is. Vulgalour you are right they are all basically the same truck think the red looks to heavy and just want to say thanks again to everyone for there comments tips it just makes it easier to work on it some how. Got quite a bit of the roof sections made ready to go back together will post pictures soon

I feel like a couple shades of grey could work also - like the smaller pic

Astounding work. Green/cream and red/burgundy have been done to the death. Shades of grey, or even light blue would look amazing.
Cap doffed once again.

Just paint it, you've come a long way. Neither of my projects ever came to the point of paint, so even if you make it pink with golden flames, you have my blessing...

There's going to be lots of different thoughts and opinions opinions on the colour but cream over green it's going to be really think it looks fresh.but the chassis is still in getting shot blasted he's only got the underside of the chassis and axles to finish probably work out better for me as been really busy with work

Paint it to suit YOU!
If you like it when it's done, that's the important thing!

after a Look around them of we went to his yard were he had a number of different vehicle wish I would of took some photos there was a for zodiac pickup think this had been made from a car then at the back of his yard was the two angle cabs managed to get a front bumper a window washer bottle and pump a panel that fits in the middle of the roof to cover the motor for the wipers and the peaces for the roof that I've spent a few hour's trying to make and a tank not from a angle cab but very much the same thing
