Is there any other color???

This will be the third truck I have painted this color. Let's just say that I like to be noticed. I was pulled over in the '67 that was painted this color around 5 am (65 in a 45) and the officers first words were, and I quote, " this things kinda hard to hide isn't it?" and I thought to myself, why would I paint it this color if I was trying to hide it? It is my favorite color and all I fix eventually end up this color... Anthony

We have many slicks on here the same color Anthony, but not many orange. I like it...its different! Progress is always a good thing too.

I like it too! Thought about orange for mine at one time. My first truck was a '74 F100 in orange.

I have a vague memory of a truck that gave me the slick bug.
In 86 I went to Bowling Green state u (hence the fuzzy memory) and I came across an orange 65ish slick. It belonged to a BG football player and had some small BGSU falcons painted on the cowl sides in front of the door.
The day I saw my slick I decided to paint it orange. Since then white has grown on me plus it hides a lot so i have been leaning that way until recently.
Now I am back to orange but now with white interior. Can't wait to see yours painted so I can think a little more about it

Take a look at Twistedfreak's concept drawing in his build thread. Orange with flames and looks cool!

Cool they should see you coming that's for sure I like the color actually can't wait to see pictures of the whole cab in color.
I wish I had some color on mine now... I am still slowy killing the green paint on my crew. Good to see what color looks like on a truck I have started to doubt mine will ever get color (other than green and grey)..

It is dressed for hunting! A color that keeps you from getting shot. HUH....That works for me. better than a color that gets you shot.
Id put a rebel flag on top but thats just me..LOL

can`t believe my eyes. this looks exactly like my `63 stepside. i picked the color out of color book in auto paint store. was supposed to be some kind of bronze, but i wasn`t even close. however, the truck is appreciated wherever i go.

i agree anthony , is there any other color ? the last 2 projects i have done have been orange , and they both were definatly eye catchers. my uni will probably end up orange , if i ever get my shop done .
