Has anyone seen any 67-72's with Burnt orange from the factory? I could swear my old 70 longhorn was that color on the spid, but I can't find a paint code for it anywhere. Thanks Ryan.

Here is a pic of mine with pearl in the clear. Of course you can not see any pearl in the picture, but you can see the change of color.

This is the color of my truck. Can't post pics now unfortunately although mine needs some tlc. But this thread is awsome! I love the colors shown here. I need to show this to my wife, she gives me such a hard time about "your orange truck". I just say well, don't worry honey it will only stay orange FOREVER!

Here is a picture of my orange truck

bigbadchev72 · 11-26-2010, 03:51 PM

I guess I better throw in the pics of what I ended up painting mine. It is sunburst orange metallic.

coggonobrien · 11-26-2010, 03:53 PM

bigbad72, what year would that color of been used?

bigbadchev72 · 11-26-2010, 04:54 PM

565401 is the PPG paint code for it. I believe I got the color out of a 96' gm/pontiac color chart book.

coggonobrien · 11-26-2010, 06:42 PM

gotcha, wonder if its the same as my 2005 cavalier then

do you have any more pictures of it painted that show the complete truck without cutting any of it out from differant angles? also what's the lift, tire size

Thanks,
David

bigbadchev72 · 11-26-2010, 08:40 PM

Believe it or not I dont have any other pics of it. I drove it for a couple weeks and now it just sits in front of the house since I got me a decked out cummins.

It has a 6" suspension lift and 35x13.5 toyo m/ts on it
