If thats Firethorn Red i will eat my shorts
thats the one i mentioned earlier
to pink in my books
That's a tidy looking thing!
I wouldn't put too much emphasis on the colour in photos.
Cameras get things wrong and so do uncalibrated computer monitors.
If it looks pink in real life then you have a problem. Although in my eyes Red is the problem!
WOW! 50 Large...
Thats pretty clean.....very nice
Innuendo is correct, the camera and light on the day, image compression software and your monitor can play tricks on true colour.
I don't have access to photoshop or lightroom at work, but I managed to take out the blue and magenta and added some yellow. If you look at the bitumen it wasn't the right colour for me.
Best is to go and see it in the flesh... If I was laying down 50K I know I would want to kick the tyres first before passing judgement.

Yep, I would say that's Firethorn alright.If you look at the door jamb colour and the area around the upper and lower tailgate hinges, that is pretty much firethorn. Also Blocker's cleaned up photo of course is a good representation.
"Proud To Be An Old Fart".
Firethorn is way darker than that check out Andrews van in the HZ sandman thread Firethorn Red
page 6 scroll down then tell me if the one for sale is the same
stand to be corrected
Just a question on the interior of the van in the shots, totally off topic I know but...
The dash and the glove box etc are all the same colour.
Shouldn't the glove box be slightly darker??
