Your SPID would have to have one of those two codes if it were an original 70 orange/white combo truck. And the only orange in 70 was Hugger (also listed as red orange at times) - the lighter tangier orange wasn't available in 70. Looks nice! Thanks for sharing.
Great info! So many minute details that are easily missed by the untrained eye. SPID shows white and hugger orange although I can't see the number until the truck gets here. I knew the partial white top was a dead giveaway but wasn't sure on the full color scheme.
