Ugly "Fire Red"
It's horrible but still put on a complete coat but I guess I'll have to find a different red this is pretty much orange yuck!!!
I think though if I find some "Brick Red" and mix the 2 together I might get a nicer colour.
Any opions you got?
Or does anyone think it may not be all that bad?

Very hard to tell from the pic but I do like it.
Of course, to me the one beside it is nicer.....
That`s the 57 F250 hiding in the back ground?

It doesn't look to bad to me, a little on the orange side, but I would have to see it in person to make a fair assesment.

It doesnt look bad from the pictures. Might look different in real life though.

nothing wrong with it. im tempted to say the 49 red is almost too dark to go with the black.

The 49 is quite dark, but the colour scheme on that truck still gives me wood (but dually noted).
