Hello all,

I have a 1977 AC 185 and am wondering which color orange they used for this year ?

Is it Persian #1, # 2, or the corporate orange ?

Thanks.

Beiing everything came down the same assembly line, Id say yours could be either. The 7020, 7045 came out for modle year 1978, they started building in late 1977, I went to the new model intro in Kansas City in late 1977 and there was the new color!!! I had 1 gallon of Allis Chalmers Corporate Orange paint left when I painted my 1979 185 and the paint matched in the areas where there was good paint. Yours should probably be PO #2, but go for it paint it corp orange!!!! HTH
