Re: Chevy orange?

Ive been wondering myself what the difference was between "hugger" and "chevy orange" . But this thread has me confused. I had the impression that hugger orange had more red in it. I have a paint code page from ppg for 1971 and 1972 and theres clearly two different color oranges. Maybe the color reference changes for different years, because 1970 just has orange and red orange, and to me the red orange looks like hugger orange.

Ive also added another photo of the paint I would like to match on this truck, what would you guys say it is, chevy orange?
