Sharples of Clifford ,livery question

I can find plenty of late 60's early 70's photos off this company but anyone got an idea of colour this truck would have carried

Sorry no direct knowledge but this thread on trucknet has a poster known as Dave the Renegade who has quite a few Sharples pictures that he says were obtained from Jean Sharples, presumably related to the owner. He also has a copy of the picture you posted so maybe he can help with the colours as there does seem to be a few variations.
