Ok guys, please keep it to pics and codes and "nice truck!" if yall don't mind...

1978 Castillo Red for the 78 fseries trucks...any one got a pic? Supposedly it was a 78 specific only..


Castillo Red was on other year model cars, but was a different tone from all the brochures I have seen.

The 78 F series Castillo was orangey and the other year cars that used that name was a brighter red....

Anyone??

I wish I knew. I haven't scanned the thread fully yet but is there a easy way for me to find out the color codes?

When I repaint I was thinking about flipping them. go black every where else and orange where it is currently black.

Don't know mine off the top of my head. My dark brown seems lighter then some other brown/tan trucks I've seen... My friends '78 250 brown looks a lot different

You need gutters on your shop, JK.

As far as nit pick that thing of beauty, never going to happen, AWESOME truck.
