Orange Trucks - Yep...... I would love to see them all.

Simple really, does not seem to be a colour/color that is used too often on these trucks, that said.... here are a few pics I found on a thread on here.

I used the search option for Orange trucks, but it does not look like there is a dedicated thread, unless I missed it.

Please do add all pics you may have stashed away.

In my head I have Orange and Black as a combo, or Orange and some lurid Green.

Re: Orange Trucks - Yep...... I would love to see them all.

I'm liking the idea of orange for my truck as well, but I love that first pic you shared Grizz. It reminds me of some of the photography I do. I love rusty stuff at night.

Instead of taking pictures like this in seconds with a flash:
Name:  flash.jpg
Views: 1945
Size:  33.2 KB

I spend about an hour or more making pictures like this with a flashlight:
Name:  noflash.jpg
Views: 1953
Size:  29.4 KB

Every time I see old rusted equipment, I think of photographing it. It has so much character.

Re: Orange Trucks - Yep...... I would love to see them all.

Mine will be a slightly more blingy version of my original color.

I love this one. Nice flame job, and a great color of orange. Very similar to what I am wanting to do with my '62.

Re: Orange Trucks - Yep...... I would love to see them all.

I notice there are not many Black roof and side flash trucks yet.

My head still thinks that a black roof and cab top plus the side pannel should work.
