I don't think the trucks came with the marketing name hugger orange. The paint code for 71-72 orange is 516.

The paint code for Hugger Orange is 524, it was called Red-Orange, or Orange-Red I can't remember right now. My 72 came with it.

dtlilly
I always thought that the Hugger part of the name was added later also. I would like to see a build sheet with the Hugger name on it The color code is 524 The original paint chips refer to it as Hugger Orange It also states that it is a 1972 Chevrolet color only http://autocolorlibrary.com/cgi-bin/...truck-pg01.jpg

I was of the belief the "Hugger" designation was a Camaro name for the same paint code....but I could be wrong....again.

Just wanting to compare the two shades of Orange that Chevrolet used it 72.
If people could post pix of their trucks in the two shades, I could make up my mind what color to paint mine. My 72 Super (In my Avatar) is the 516, but is original, and faded. I need to see a pic of one with fresh 516 paint. Also need a pic of fresh Hugger Orange paint to compare. griesel72, are you saying the pic you posted is hugger orange? Please ![]() Darren

This is turning in to an interesting thread, I really like the orange trucks. Imdarrin, could you post a full size pic of yours? I know it's faded, but it might shed some light on the issue.

This is my 72 Super.
Regular 516 orange. This is when I first got it home. I tore off the antennas, and got a new front grill / bumper since this pic. Darren
