I'm after pics of torana's painted in Lone Oranger or Manderine orange to get an idea on what the colours look like on the actual cars.

Sen a few orange torana's but not sure what colour orange they are.

You can throw in other picture of orange torana's to compare.

I know seeing them in person makes a big differance but finding someone that has these colours and getting to see them wouldn't be easy
(for obvious reasons) and paint shops don't keep the colour chips any more.
Your help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

Start at the end and work back, lots of orange.

Also, do a search on orange as there has already been a thread on orange cars

Nick if you see a colour on a car that you like and it belongs to a forum member just pm him/her and ask for the name of the colour I sincerely doubt that any of us would say no.

^^ Some people are pretty secretive about things, but 90% of them love seeing more Torry's come along!

I chose my first colour by asking V8Gent what the colour of his old car AGENT.O was!

My old SL/R, was told that it was an original colour, had been repainted in the past though, if I can find a photo of the tag, will post the details up.

Thanks guys
I think I might go tangerine orange just want to see the colour on a car in person before I make up my mind,
it's a bright plain solid fun colour so it will suit the car, built to have fun in.

A9X that looks awesome the wheels look similar to mine they are a two piece wheel. Not sure what mine are called but they look good and
seeing your rims it gives me a good look at what the finished look is going to be with mine
Sill have to get my wheels rechromed and powder coated but that will come later.
Thanks I like to look at your car to.
Cheers Nick

Not sure who manifacturer is of my rim no marking but will take them to Neale's to rechrome and refit centers after powder coating.
Seen a set that had the center welded on chromes and rechromed and they look good no scratch marks in chrome.
Cheers
