Default 1977 Dodge PW tailgate "Dodge" emblem color??

Hi all. I am having my 77 Power Wagon Club Cab re-painted a metallic dark green. What color would the tailgate "Dodge" emblem be? I was thinking silver or white. Thanks for your replies.

Since you are the one painting it, paint it whatever you want. I think they were black, but it's been decades so my memory might be faulty. Different packages had different colors. Warlock, Little Red Wagon, Macho and so on were different colors.

After I replied before, I got to thinking. (Now my head hurts!) Dark colors usually had white letters and light colors had black.

I've sometimes thought about using invisible paint. I have trouble making up my mind about color though. Infrared or Ultraviolet? (We now return you to normal people.)

What would be the purpose of invisible paint if even you couldn't see it? There is a paint that can be lit up, It's mega expensive but really cool.

Actually, you CAN see invisible paint. It's just a sort of odd color. You n see the actual hue without a filter on your camera. Infrared is sort of brownish and ultraviolet is a blueish color.

You've never read many of my posts, have you? I look at things a bit differently.
