Re: Post your orange trucks

First off
Slick67 your truck is gorgeous, that is like the perfect orange!!!
and here's my 1970- stock hugger orange paint that will be redone either hugger orange again or maybe that orange that slick67 has... :metal::metal:Attachment 656590

Re: Post your orange trucks

Has anyone seen any 67-72's with Burnt orange from the factory? I could swear my old 70 longhorn was that color on the spid, but I can't find a paint code for it anywhere. Thanks Ryan.

Here is a pic of mine with pearl in the clear. Of course you can not see any pearl in the picture, but you can see the change of color.

This is the color of my truck. Can't post pics now unfortunately although mine needs some tlc. But this thread is awsome! I love the colors shown here. I need to show this to my wife, she gives me such a hard time about "your orange truck". I just say well, don't worry honey it will only stay orange FOREVER!

Re: Post your orange trucks

Here is a picture of my orange truck

Re: Post your orange trucks

bigbad72, what year would that color of been used?

Re: Post your orange trucks

565401 is the PPG paint code for it. I believe I got the color out of a 96' gm/pontiac color chart book.

Re: Post your orange trucks

gotcha, wonder if its the same as my 2005 cavalier then

do you have any more pictures of it painted that show the complete truck without cutting any of it out from differant angles? also what's the lift, tire size

Thanks,
David

Re: Post your orange trucks

Believe it or not I dont have any other pics of it. I drove it for a couple weeks and now it just sits in front of the house since I got me a decked out cummins.

It has a 6" suspension lift and 35x13.5 toyo m/ts on it
