sailed2japan · 10-20-2010, 12:33 PM

I'm not sure if this counts, but it's mostly brown.

not a brand new paint job, was used as work truck so lots of scratches but still factory brown til i get money for new paint

A little note on the Starion. A local friend of mine owns the car and has taken great care of it. The car is lightly modified to increase the fun factor, but still retains great driveability.

I've got one of my own, but it's not nearly in such nice shape.

Had a Fiji blue 89 Conquest. Still a few parts laying around here and there, car is long gone. Very fun to drive, PITA to work on.

CaliDude76 · 10-21-2010, 07:22 PM

I guess this could be considered a type of brown....

I would venture to say that technically the outside is called "Desert Sand Metallic"... and the inside is "Saddle Tan",. or other way around... I know for sure those are the paint names on the tag thats on the wheel well under the hood.

MTCK · 10-21-2010, 08:53 PM

Here's my old 77 C10. Not sure if it's a factory color code, but definitely not factory paint. Too much metal flake... Leon Phelps would be proud of this thread.

Holy crap...that is NICE! Do you have any more pictures?

MTCK · 10-21-2010, 09:14 PM

Thanks! Yeah I have a few somewhere but can't seem to find them on this computer. I'll check my other HD. Bought the truck for $400 and didn't do anything but clean it, clay bar the paint and put the rally's on it from then until that picture. It had a new 300 horse GM crate motor and after rebuilding the carb would do quite a smoke show. Needless to say the PO really wanted it gone. Great truck, I wish I still had it. 2wd wasn't very practical up here though.

justpball · 10-22-2010, 09:14 AM

here is my burb

TDS-MN · 10-22-2010, 10:12 AM

Not a great picture of my brown one, and it's not ONLY brown, but faded primer and rust as accents. LOL!

baclay9 · 10-22-2010, 12:34 PM

Here is the Brown one I had in Highschool...Loved that truck!
