72 k20 color question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ofnaman1 · 09-25-2019, 10:44 AM

I realize these pictures are not great, but does anyone know what color my truck is? The driver door is not the correct color, but the fenders and inside are. Also, this truck has a white top, would that have been factory? My wife talked me into repainting it the same color so I am trying to find what it is called. Thank you

Pictures are still posting sideways. No idea why they are doing that, they are correct when I select them.

That looks like ochre to me. White top is likely original. Post a picture of your glove box label and we can tell you exactly how it was painted from the factory.

That's a hard one...my guess is on medium gold based on your interior photo. As taskforce said, take a look at your glovebox label.

rotated them

As a 72, I’d go with ochre. Solid ochre primary color is 511, I’ll have to double check the conventional two tone code later though (ie white top w/ochre body). SPID will actual show individual color names and single combo two tone RPO code.

Ochre for sure

Spanish gold

Is the cab floor the same color as the other panels?

your paint code should be 536 if it was originally white/ochre conventional two tone (521 secondary color on roof, 511 ochre primary color on body)
