And it clearly has its original silver poly paint everywhere. It is the only one I have ever seen. The paint did not hold up very well and is totally worn through in many places. I am not going to repaint it. I wonder if every factory made every color.
And as far as the controversy about Hugger Orange is concerned I owned a 1970 Chevy that was clearly labelled "Hugger Orange" on the SPID. Just my two cents worth. I know there is a lot of discussion about all the different names for what is called Hugger Orange on my truck. I love to hear personal comments and experiences that folks have had with names and codes on their trucks.
