Pink 71 GMC info

We just picked up a 71 GMC that was originally pink & white. Can anyone give me info other than it is rare? I was looking to find what the color was called as well as production numbers . We are not sure yet what we want to do with the truck. I noticed that Already Gone has a pink coral ice truck but it looks lighter than ours. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: Pink 71 GMC info

It is rare, though maybe not as much in Canada as it is down in the States. From what I've read (one whole source ), all Chevy truck dealerships in Canada were given one pink truck to sell. They could order more as desired.

There were Canadian-only colours (< That's for you Canadians,eh?) and Ice Coral Pink was one.There was also a lime color that is the rage these days (Anyone else notice?).You got a pretty rare thing there.
