Saddle color trucks

How 'bout some pics of my favorite color on these trucks, Saddle (at least I think that's the name). Does anyone have more pics of this one, for instance? Lets see the nice, saddle trucks in stock configuration. Are there any?

My Goldilocks project is this color, and was offered in '66 only. Danbury Mint had a 1:24 scale model out last year in the same color.

I know you like em stock. Other than lacking a set of tall and skinny tires, this is about as pure as they come. 22,000 miles, unrestored, with factory A/C. Pass the drool cup please.

I've always thought this color is one of the best for these trucks.

In a perfect world...I'd be sitting in the driver's seat of that with a smile from ear to ear and my arm out the window soaking up the sunshine.

And a bed full of tall/skinny repro vintage tires, on my way to a tire shop! That thing is awesome!! Is that yours, oem4me? Seems like something you'd own!

Hell yes I'd own that. But I don't.

I dig this color I didn't know it was 66 only.

That's actually a gorgeous paint scheme.

I can't get over how good that can look.

Refreshing.

BTW....
I'm thinkin it's a hard color to match.....just by lookin

It's different. There's a good bit of difference from the door jambs to the interior panels on my Saddle Poly '66. Saddle Poly has more brown in it than the Fawn Poly interior color.

Does anyone recognize the truck in my original post? I'd really like to find some more pics of it. Want to see it from the side. Very sharp.

hard to tell with the lighting, but the first truck may be more goldish...i have a couple other pics which also favor the saddle color but also look to have a touch more gold

I think my truck color could fall in the saddle family.
