Re: 70 CST Omaha orange
I am considering the same colors on my truck. I really like the white top only because it is not seen as often. On a 70, another factory cst option was white top and white below the lower moulding, which is very cool also.
Here is a pic for ya.

Re: 70 CST Omaha orange
I sure like the orange and white combo...especially Hugger Orange and Antique White.

Re: 70 CST Omaha orange
I saw a orange and white truck coming down the hiway the other day,and it looked good mixed in with all the bland little MPG queens.

Re: 70 CST Omaha orange

Re: 70 CST Omaha orange
All these are either Hugger or Red/Orange.The Omaha Orange is the fleet truck color like some states,counties,or utilities use.Allied Van Lines and Asplundt Tree Service are a couple national companies that use it,lighter and brighter.Sillyoldman`s truck is a nice example of Omaha Orange./white in the deluxe two-tone.

Re: 70 CST Omaha orange
Prob not if the holes weren't already there. Looks fine with just the wide lower moulding IMO.
