    I have an orange 71 Grabber but it was originally red, so I don't know what kind of orange it is.

    My dad had his '71 Comet painted orange for several years. There are some pics here: http://www.5hp.hill.cc/hotrod/page2/

    The pics make it look lighter then it really was. It was actually the same color as my grandpa's '70 Boss 429. The color is better shown in this pic Not sure what it was called.
