Is this not a beautiful truck?

I love it. The colors are perfect. The color is Spanish Gold. Is this color the same as the 71-72 Ochre Yellow color?

Re: Is this not a beautiful truck?

That is a beautiful truck even the color is beautiful i would prefer it if it was all spanish gold instead of 2 tone like that.That really makes me consider painting a truck that color.I even like the mirrors on it too.

Re: Is this not a beautiful truck?

very cool truck. Looks similar but just a little more yellow than ochre but that could just be the lighting?

Re: Is this not a beautiful truck?

It looks beautifull!
I wonder how many trucks are still available in such a shape and what they might cost?
I would be interested in buying one and getting over here to Germany, where it would have an historic status if older than 30 years!

Re: Is this not a beautiful truck?

Its not mine . It took all I had not to buy that truck and I am starting to kick myself for passing on it . Maybe there is a good reason for it ? It looks great in pics ,and I know that they are rarely as nice in person ,but is nice enough to give up a little from pics to in person viewing. The truck sold at $5800. A good buy for someone .

I'm Amazed.

It's like a time machine when I look at these pictures.

Where were you in 1974?

Nice show of restraint, Frank. Looks like it was a nice one. I had one in those same colors about 5-6 years ago.
