epoxy primered and powdercoated. Does anyone know the correct OD color I should order for the frame?

Try the search function and you will find tons of paint color information. Here is good information on frame prep, painiting, color and cons of powdercoating.

Frame arrived, was particle blasted, epoxy primered and powder coated, and looks amazing. I'm still waiting to get the engine back to swap it in. At this point, almost everything in the M38A1 will be rebuilt or new. Novak rebuilt a T90 and transfercase for me, and installed an overdrive. The steering wheel, arm, and gear box are Midwest Military replacements. New tie rod ends, shocks, leaf springs, pitman arm, horn rod, horn switch, axle bumper stoppers, wheel bearings, kingping bearings, rims, tires, and wheels all courtesy of Kasier-Willies. New gauges and senders courtesy of Midwest Military. In cab heater from Midwest Military, full winter enclosure from Beachwood Canvas, and the 1954 military issue turn signal upgrade I bought, still in the packaging, off ebay. I upgraded the front BO marker lights to amber lenses, put gamma goat lenses on the rear tailights, and changed out the passenger side tailight for a driver's side on. I installed wipers (and am considering changing out the old motores) for the vacuum wipers, and bought a fabricated rearview mirror, and an extra sideview mirror for the passenger side, off D.L. Bensinger. I bought a deep water fording kit from Midwest Military as well, a repro exhaust manifold off ebay, and the engine, which took a dump on me, should get rebuilt and be back hopefully sometime this month. I might finally have a running vehicle!

And a cream puff at that! She'll be expensive but she'll probably be a real joy to drive!

Be sure to grind off the powder coat at the chassis to engine mount electrical ground strap point and the voltage regulator/battery cable ground point..
