HOK Candy Tangerine on the RPU


Not sure what color this is but I think it goes well beyond copper, kinda maroon-y. Still purty.


HOK Sunset Pearl


No idea on this one..

Re: I need ideas for Paint!! Looking for metallic oranges! PLEASE POST ALL PICTUREs

Found the color of that truck, turns out he is a fellow member on here! Its plymouth prowler orange pearl. Were do you think I could get that? No big name companys make it, should I trust a local paint shop to mix it for me? Would that be high grade paint or cheap?

Heres the tread for 58 GMC below

I used the same paint code as 58GMC.....I used the PPG Prowler orange pearle paint code, it is very expensive (857 dollars a gal.) my cost and I own a body shop. Pics do not do this color any justice.......That pic of 58GMC was taken at sunset and changes color in different lights. Here's a couple pics of mine and a little video clip, keep in mind my truck hasn't been wet sanded or buffed yet.

That color is amazing in person. I had it on an 89 I built back in high school. I've always been an orange paint fan from the first time I saw Hugger, but the newer metallic and pearl oranges are awesome.
