Re: what color is this I need it BAD

Isnt it that Stacey Davids truck? If so I think it was a custom color made just for that but may be available now.

Sunset Orange Metallic is mainly found on GM F Bodies and also similar on a Vette.

Re: what color is this I need it BAD

The PPG Copperhead color is a Ford Ranger color with more metal in thepaint and some brightener to make it stand out.

Re: what color is this I need it BAD

Harley Davidson has a color very similar to that this year also. I don't know of it either.

That is absolutely right, but the paint color is everywhere in the country. That is what made me think twice about what I would do for my coors when I do paint. I would want to be original and different.
