mine used to be flame red and thats basically orange with a little red in it. All the girls i dated hated the color. Some kid thought i was John Elway because the car looked Bronco orange.

Orange is like alot of other corvette colors where you either like it or you don't! I almost never see another, esp in a BB car, so I love mine!
There are many red, black, or white vettes that used to be orange, yellow, green, corvette bronze, warbonnet yellow, etc. that IMHO are much more interesting colors when they are fresh and not old and faded.

71 LS-5 in Ont Orange
I have a low mile 71 in Ont Orange. I don't like the color much. I bought the car as it had 41k miles. ..
I don't know how much longer its actually going to be that color, but its fun to drive it to Hooters

It is currently white, the original color with the dark saddle interior.
After seeing the pics of 71 SoCal's beauty, I can't wait to get her painted!!
