Post your orange trucks
 
I am getting ready to paint my 67 chevy truck. I am wanting to paint it some sort of orange. Unless someone has a color other than red that is too nice to not put on instead.

I went to the paint shop today and got overwelmed by all the options they had, about a 6' wide row of books. So if you can post up some pictures of the color and what vehicle it is and year, or paint color if you know it.

Here are a couple colors that I have seen, But dont know what they were off of originally.

Here is my truck when I first got it:

Do you have the paint code or what that color was originally off of?

AusTx68 11-20-2009 08:16 PM

Re: Post your orange trucks and cars
 
Atomic Orange Metallic
WA418P / 83

Came on the 07/08 Corvette not to be confused with Sunset Orange which has more of a copper color. Both are very nice but very expensive. Expect to pay over $400 per gallon.
