im working on a 1972 chevy pickup model fleet side, 350 cu in ohv v-8. im confused whether to use Chevy engine orange or hugger orange. i can not find any Chevy orange paint, any good replacements?

also with a 71 dodge charger and a 70 Plymouth. not sure about engine colors instructions say hemi orange but pics on box look a lighter orange.

I'm not sure what the difference is, but I've use Chevy engine orange as a stand in for Hugger Orange on a Camaro I built a while back - looks close enough to my eye.

Wouldn't surprise me if they're the same.

Testor Little Bottle Orange is a near perfect match for Chevy Engine Orange. Hugger Orange is just a slight bit redder, but should be acceptable. I wouldn't lose much if any sleep over it.
