Here's a solid Ochre truck I almost bought about 7 years ago. I forgot about it and stumbled on the old picture:

I'm going to go kick my butt again for not buying it now...

Really nice truck, but I "hate" it when the seller needs to put quotation marks "everywhere"...

The simple explanation is someone at PPG goofed. On Duponts paint chips(the original GM supplier) there is no restrictions on Ochre color.

Yeah,it sure is. More than not that's the case these days. It used to seem none got away...heh heh. I always figured I'd end up owning every configuration in every color. What happened? Man,reality bites!!
