I found an Orbit Orange '71 on the Net at Ultimate GTO.
Here's the URL:

This gives me a good idea what my '72 would look like, and since the color is so awesome, I think I'm gonna do it.

Orbit Orange was never used on any other cars. Only 1970 GTO's. I have talked to a paint rep that supplies paint to us at GM and I had him do a little research on the codes and such. Check out the picture attached of a 1979 Z28 in Bright Yellow.

Other half of picture, sorry.

See Orbit Orange undercarriage pic of my old Judge.
Notice the cleaning rag under car! Forgot to pick it up before I shot the pic. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]

Another shot of the stripes "glowing" with the flash from the camera.

Please find it. I would love to see it.

For 1978 there is a Yellow-Orange color code "34". Looks alot like Orbit Orange. I have seen that in person myself before. See pic attached.

bandit, gtodon is correct. it was used on 71 gto's with special order. gary daniel in tulsa has a 71 455-ho gto that was built like a week or two after the judge option was dropped and it came with (original paint still on the car) orbit orange paint (phs shows something like special paint), judges stripes and rear spoiler all documented on the phs

I have alot of factory lit. that I got from a guy who worked @ our Pittsburgh zone office. I got a 70 dealer album new cond. cramed w/all kind of notices &amp; memos. I found one dated nov. 4th, 69 listing orbitorange paint for judges, but extra charge for non judge.
