Re: Hood & fender emblems

I don't know personally, but I do have a NOS 1963 c-10 emblem still in the box. I could get as close a color sample as I can match it too if you'd like.

Re: Hood & fender emblems

Here is the best I can get with the phone camera. Every chevy hubcap or emblem Ive had has this same kinda reddish-orange matte color. I think its more red than orange, but all of my 63 caps (x8) have this same color as well as several other 63 c-10, c-20, c-30 emblems I currently have. The 60-61 I6 & V8 (light duty and heavy duty) hood ornaments I use to have had the same color also, so I can add some input on those particluar items. Im not sure of other years or emblems though, just what I have or have seen. I have several different brand paint sheets and crash sheets for shops from 60-66 trucks and I cannot find anything on the color. Ive looked at the 10 or so odd factory, engineer, dealer data & shop books that I have also. There are quite a few people out there with more literature and may be able to help.

This is the NOS 1963 c-10 fender emblem I have. It has its original paint and only has box wear, so its as close to factory as I can get you personally. I have to go to the paint shop in a few weeks to get a gallon for my truck, I can try and color match there also.

Re: Hood & fender emblems

Found a hubcap without to much fading and it matches the paint on the repop
c10 badges I bought from classic parts and looks close to your photos. I tried mathing it with bright red I had in the garage and it is not red at least not the samples I have. I found some chrysler orange engine paint at autozone that might work. I always thought they were red. If you can confirm that they are orange that would help.
Thanks 1963c-10

Re: Hood & fender emblems

I think the color you show on your test piece looks right with 1 coat. Looks like where it got a 2nd coat it darkened up some. Im not sure if orange or red, but it looks more red than orange to me. Aerotruck63 has a vast source of factory literature also...maybe he can help.

I sent him a PM to see if he can lend any help on it.

Re: Hood & fender emblems

Im trying to get an answer from Dupont to see if they can help any on this. Aerotruck thinks that it may be cardinal red. I will let you know more when I do.

Re: Hood & fender emblems

I ended up using "chevy orange-red" off the shelf at autozone, I got a good sample of original paint and its a good match. That probably why my faded sampes turned orange. Here is a hubcap I painted next to a repro badge which also is a close color match to original.

Re: Hood & fender emblems

Does anyone have a picture of a GMC V8 emblem similar to the big V6 emblem? Did they make them for the 637?

Re: Hood & fender emblems

Here is a 66 c20 custom camper emblem. If from what Ive read is correct, it was also used in 67 & 68. There are also two different colors depending on engine, maybe a 66 owner can provide the pic of the other emblem. (UNVERIFIED as too if there was a different color in 66)
