Ya know, it's funny, but my '68 C/10 Stepside in 516 Orange has been exposed to the AZ sun for over 50 years, and it's still orange. But trucks 20 or 30 years younger have pealing paint, exposing galvanized steel panels below.
They must have changed up the paint formula. No more lead, maybe?

I like my patina-d Orange truck, but some replacement fenders will need an artist to make the finish match. I don't want a shiny fresh paint job.
