What color is this? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ksbeatty · 06-07-2007, 02:57 PM

Can anyone help me identify this color. I am pretty sure it is not the old Bronze just shined up. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

It kind of looks like the color copperhead from Trucks

sb69chevy · 06-07-2007, 03:21 PM

Don't know but I like it. It would help hide my rust when it came back.

I'm diggin the flames, too.

alot of newer cars have that type of color... Pontiac Grand Am, Chevy Cobalt,Cavalier, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Nissan 350Z...so on

71chevylowrider · 06-07-2007, 03:58 PM

It looks like that Nissan 350Z color that is becoming popular these days.

It's a bad picture, but that's the color I was thinking of. Also the 350 has indoor light hitting it, & the truck has sun hitting it, so it's hard to compare.

ppg makes this same color as does dupont if you want me to get a paint code for ya let me know

greenefamily · 06-07-2007, 06:02 PM

timcos · 06-07-2007, 06:05 PM

Volvo has a color very much like that.

it is called Saffron Pearl Metallic Yellow.

71chevylowrider · 06-07-2007, 07:18 PM

It could be the new Chevy HHR color also.

Piece of Work · 06-07-2007, 07:34 PM

It looks very similar to mine. I painted it 2005 Viper, Copperhead pearl, from PPG. I don't have pics yet, maybe tomorrow.

ksbeatty · 06-07-2007, 08:03 PM

Thanks for the response. I really like it too and I am going to try to do the flames also.

GREASEMONKEY72 · 06-07-2007, 09:43 PM

thats one nice color

1LoC10 · 06-07-2007, 09:56 PM

do what I do, take a drive on a Sunday and stop at all the dealerships... right down the name of colors you like

71chevylowrider · 06-07-2007, 10:02 PM

That's how I picked the color I wanted to paint my house, I just drove around some nice nbeighborhoods until I saw the color I really liked, & I went up to the door & told them how much i liked the color & wanted to paint my house the same color & told them, don't worry I live several neighborhoods away

They were very nice & gave me the brand, & name of the paint, & the store they bought it at. I went & bought it in 5 gallon buckets. If you see that color on another vehicle, ask them what it's called, I'm sure they'd be happy to tell you. Heck, fidn the guy who owns that truck & ask him, that's make it alot easier.

corn · 06-07-2007, 10:34 PM

Dont know what its called, but I like it.

Piece of Work · 06-08-2007, 09:36 PM
