Hugger Orange / White top pics?

I am considering paint colors for my 69 short step. I am between Hugger Orange with a white top and Butternut Yellow / white. It will have a 68 clip with white grille shell. Would anyone have pics of either color, hopefully on a step side? I haven't seen very many and have always really liked both colors. I'm an old Camaro guy, just getting into the C10s too. Thanks in advance guys.

The Camaro colors look great on these trucks.

Re: Hugger Orange / White top pics?

Here's a pic of a '68 LWB that I restored and sold recently... I knew it would look good but it turned out way better than I though it would. I think the trim really sets it off also. I have seen the same combination without and IMO, it looks better with the trim installed.

Here is a shot of my old 70 in Hugger Orange, no white top but you get the idea. That color looks great on these old pickups!

Re: Hugger Orange / White top pics?

What about a hugger orange with black top combo? Has anyone ever done that? I am thinking about doing that to my 68. Just for something different. Matt

There was an old GMC long bed with that Combo in my town growing up. I have wanted to see someone do it on a nice truck for a LONGGGGGG time!

Re: Hugger Orange / White top pics?

Oh me .. That thing is stunning. I think you've just convinced me!

Yes, hugger / black or I even thought about a gunmetal / titanium grey top to 'Foose' it up a little. Humm.

I can't stop looking at the Hugger / White though.
