Question Any info on this truck or the paint?

I came across this picture and I really love the color. Im getting ready to pick the paint for my truck and would love to know what color this is. Anyone have a clue?

Looks very close to the Candy Brandywine I painted my wifes jeep with. Maybe a shade darker.

Hard to tell in these pics because mine changes so much with the light, but in a darker atmostphere (dusk or sunset) it looks very dark, much like the truck above.

I did a ghost flame on the hood with a slightly darker shade, but you have to look real close to see it.

The ghost flames were the first thing I noticed when I seen the picture, nice Jeep too.

Looks like brandy wine candy over a silver base to me as well.
