I looked up some pictures, could only find tractors. But that color looks and sounds perfect. I would really like to see your truck! Haha

I have a 67 D100 thats orange.

New to the group, 68 that's orange

I think that most of these "Orange" trucks are Toreador Red.

I am really digging the persian orange, I think that is the way i'll go. A lot of the orange I see has too much red.

i was originally thinking vitamin c, but i have my heart set on the Persian orange in the one of the previous replies. Thanks though!

I just did this on Monday and Tuesday, used some rattle cans of plastic paint just so that I can see what it looks like.

So far I really like what it could be when it's all done.

Hemi Orange/Flat Black
