Chrome Yellow or Hugger Orange 4X4 pics?

I am getting close to painting my 72 GMC 4X4, I am going crazy trying to decide on a color, right now I am considering Hugger Orange or a Chrome yellow. I am also trying to decide between a single stage paint job or a base/clear. I am going to paint the truck myself and would like to save some money and time so I can get started on repainting my red 69 C 10. I am considering just a single stage, it's not going to be a show truck, just a daily driver, something I can still haul junk in on occasion.
I have a lowered 69 C10 that I want to paint again and will be investing more money into it. Anyway, does anyone have opinions on single stage paint versus base/clear? I would also like to see your yellow or orange 4X4s! The top pic is my new GMC, the bottom is my 69 C10 and my teardrop trailer I built from scratch.
Thanks! Aaron

Sorry no pictures but love the truck and trailer. I went with stock color on mine which was light bronze and a single color no white top. I would love to see more pictures of the trailer and any plans you have on it.

Re: Chrome Yellow or Hugger Orange 4X4 pics?

Thanks! I built it in my basement a few years ago. It's almost fully self contained, it has two ten gallon water tanks, a slide out sink with on demand water pump, slide out oven and stove, a fridge, queen size bed, AM/FM/XM/Direct TV/DVD/CD and a fold down 12" TV monitor in the cabin. It also has a small Honda generator and solar power.
I built it from scratch with my own plans that I changed many times along the way. I had a lot of fun building it. The only bad part about it is getting bombarded by people any time I have to stop for gas, it takes forever to get away. I like to show off so I guess it's kind of fun.
You can see a lot more pics of it's construction and a lot of other things I build here--http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v655/aaronhero/
