A couple of different "personalities" of Orange Boy over the years...

haulnrat · 03-06-2011, 08:12 PM

The spid calls it red/orange with black roof.

Can anyone tell me how many trucks got this color combination in 72? I have not seen many.

72swbcamo · 04-02-2011, 10:06 PM

Some might call it red but it looks orange in pics and in when you see it in person.
This is an older picture when I polish it, the orange really stands out.

BlackZ28 · 04-07-2011, 02:37 AM

Bump for some more orange trucks!

You asked about Hugger Orange with white roof. Here's the truck I'm building now in that color combo. I have had multiple orange vehicles in the past, but this is the first Hugger one. Personally, I don't care for it near as much as other oranges I've used.

Bad Jackson · 08-13-2014, 04:23 PM

Just thought I'd give this a bump. Orange looks so good!

captain69 · 08-13-2014, 04:58 PM

I call it red but everyone else calls it orange.
