Re: Trying out a New color
Nice contrast. It looks good with the two-tone.

Re: Trying out a New color
It would look good if the whole dash was orange, otherwise it looks like something a guy driving a honda would do to his interior.

Re: Trying out a New color
There is a color that Chevrolet used that is listed for my 72 burb that is called "red orange". I believe it is the same as "hugger orange". Obviously, it has a bit more red to it than a typical orange, which I would say is yellower. I think the Chevy Red and Chevy Orange are typical engine colors... I don't know how the engine colors match up to their body colors.
It's amazing how 'red' that chevy orange looks on your black dash. I like it.

Re: Trying out a New color
Looks like a GMC interior.Lookin to the Hugger Orange.In 71 or 72 it changed to Red/Orange.My eyes see them as virtually the same.

Re: Trying out a New color
Don't forget Medium Red! It's a 72 color that tends to look different in different light. Sometimes it looks very red and sometimes it looks way Orange.

Re: Trying out a New color
Sorry Asa,didn`t mean to short change you by not mentioning your color.No doubt in my shortbed top5 (only because I could never narrow it down to a favorite).You do great photogin`,too.Always in a grat setting.I just saw thw Chevy orange engine paint and figured orange was his priority.
