orange with saddle interior - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*c10_1971* · 06-26-2009, 11:40 PM

Anyone have any pics of this combo or has anyone ever saw it? How did it look? I have a lot of saddle interior parts and want to paint my truck orange, want to use what I have just don't know how it would look.

It's for my 71, not the 50th.

Hey- Do you really have a factory SWB 50th? I think some of the guys on here would be interested in seeing it. Oh yeah, orange and saddle would look funky- in a bad way!

*c10_1971* · 06-27-2009, 08:30 AM

Yes I have a factory short 50th with air and some other good parts, it is in primer now and will see about posting some pics of it later. The orange I was going to use on the 71 is the Hot Rod Flatz hugger orange and am considering using the saddle stuff because I have so much of it.

My project truck was originally hugger orange with saddle interior. I like it. Sorry, no pics.

The saddle and orange would look real good together. If you have it, use it.

turp mcspray · 06-27-2009, 10:02 AM

I also think it would look good together.

I never seen orange with saddle,but in1971 my father bought A new Cheyenne short bed, it had no options, A V8 three on the tree, and it was Hugger orange with a blue interior. Many years later I asked him why that truck? His reply was.... "because I liked the colors.

Funny you say that because I was just thinking of what colors do Not go well with orange, and blue was on the list.

As far as saddle, I think most colors are compatible.

One that has been on and off ebay...

Orange and Blue that must have looked like the Denver Donkos uniforms. RAIDER NATION!!!

sson20s · 06-27-2009, 03:22 PM

i like those colors and was planning to use those colors myself.

PanelDeland · 06-27-2009, 04:24 PM

I've seen Hugger Orange with an Oxblood(maroon) interior.Factory it was on the SPID.I would suggest against that.However I think saddle would be good but a darker brown would be even better.

Bpokey · 06-27-2009, 04:32 PM

My 68 is orange with maroon interior and at first I didn't care for it but I think it is growing on me. I think orange and saddle looks pretty good myself.

**special-K** · 06-27-2009, 09:28 PM

Hugger and blue.Sounds like Howard Johnson`s colors or Gulf Oil.They`d let you do anything back then.(and then laugh about it at happy hour.

I like it on your truck. Have you seen the truck that Stacey David(?) built on the show gearz? It's I think a 68 called project copper head. It's a PPG copper metallic paint with the tan interior. I LOVE that color combo.

fastom · 07-01-2009, 03:08 PM

Here's mine

68C10withA396 · 07-01-2009, 03:35 PM

fastom that truck is very nice. Wish I had the time and money and craftsmanship to do mine like yours.
