Anyone recognize this color?

[gclark1]

I am not sure it is a factory color, but it looks like it might be. I was dealt a blow earlier this week by my painter when I went to tell him my Blazer would be ready in 1 week. He told me the material cost would be VERY expensive, prompting me to go back to the drawing board and look for an alternative. I found the guy that owns the truck I have attached, but he said he bought it when it was already painted and did not know the code. Any help is appreciated! Thanks, Greg

It doesn't look like a 73-87 color but maybe someone knows better. Jonboy might recognize it.

Thanks for your help on this. I also posted the same message on the 67-72 site and it seems to be a 72 factory medium bronze, also known as copper code 522. I know it is a different vintage of truck, but I really like the combination. I made the mistake of not asking any questions about material cost until I was a week away for taking it in. Again, thanks for checking it out.

Are you going to use it on the Blazer? Two tone, or solid, or ?

[Liddy71]

looks like med bronze met. code 5187a

maybe russet poly

That's brown.

[Liddy71]

did a cross reference on the 522 came up with these paint codes GM5195, chrysler code DT6409 and ppg 2202

That does look like the medium bronze. What colors were you originally going to use?

The colors on the Blazer in my avatar are off of a 2012 Ram and 2012 Escalade for the gold metallic. The red is $1125/gallon, so I have decided to take a second look at my options in terms of what I like. I will get some pricing on the new colors today and see what comes of it.

Thanks to everyone for your help! This type of assistance and knowledge is exactly why I joined this site in the first place. I really appreciate everyone going to the trouble to help.

It could be "Ketchme Kopper" from House of Kolor: http://www.houseofkolor.com/speedsha...es_shimrin.jsp

Are you looking to go red or more orange? You might look into the later Corvette orange (2006 & up). There is an alternate that throws a lot of red, and would look pretty good with the gold mist.

I actually saw that Corvette color you mention. It is crazy vibrant. I am all tied in a knot now. It took me months to figure out my original plan, now I have 10 days to find a new look I like just as well. How about this one? I just found this color combo and actually sent the owner a note (he's on this site too). As far as I am concerned, if I can find out what color it is, I am done looking! All of the pics below are the same truck at different angles.
