GM has an orange that they painted a few firebirds in the late 80's. It looked like the color of a "burned pumpkin" Sounds strange but it was the coolest color i've ever seen. Good luck

Copper Head is Ford Ranger Burnt Orange - they did change the OE formula - removed the small metal flake and added a large/xtra large metal flake - made the paint really pop - supposedly - the formula is avail thru PPG ??
