Thanks for the links now that i feel like an ass....

 

Here is my "Bright Orange Metallic" Alpine, courtesy of Kirker Paints.

I am not a student of paints, but I think this stuff is a little different. The major portion of the color is from the orange metallic flakes and not conventional pigments.

I painted the coupe orange. Call it ORANGE A PEAL .

 

Just got this

 

I've had to endure a few unsolicited editorial comments about mine over the years, but I still love it (avatar).

 

PPG Global orange toner

 

my 32, it's hugger orange....

 

Here's mine. I just had the paint supplier try to match the powder coating on my chassis. He got it pretty close but didn't keep track of what toners he used so when it comes to touch ups - I'm S.O.L.

 

That is a sweet ride!! Please some more pics!! John

 

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

 

Lamborghini Arancio Atlas. Orange Pearl.

 

not hamb approved but its still orange, its ppg's omni pale orange. even though everybody called it f-ing pink

 

I saw this 49 Pontiac on ebay a few years ago and really liked the color. I thought about painting my 52 Pontiac this color or one close to it, but it'll probably end up gloss black instead.

 

Omaha Orange, same color as a county dump truck.

 

That's because it is f-ing pink.
"A rose is still a rose by any other name"
They should at least call it pink grapefruit

I didn't paint it but the guy I bought my F100 from said he used 70 Corvette orange.

some in here.

 

Here's our lakes sedan,the color is GM tangiers orange.

 

I was just trying to help.

 

Speaking of color schemes, for the most part you seem to be stuck with black. If the orange is fairly dark, it will give chrome a pretty good snap. The arsty-fartsy color wheels say that turquoise is the complimentary color. The big question: Do you have the guts to do it? I was going to paint my wheel hubs turquoise, but my "better half" countermanded the order.

Couple of orange ones.

 

some orange cars ive been collecting, thinking i might want my falcon orange,, but still in the air for color.

 

Technically my car is Ford "Poppy Red", but it usually looks orange, especially in bright sunlight.

FYI the blue belt was the best wide belt available on a sunday morning. It was a mowing deck belt from tractor supply!
