Color Code for Fire Orange
Correct Paint Color for the General Lee
The orange paint used on the General Lee is the least consistent feature off the car. Corvette Flame Red, Hemi Orange and Big and Bad Orange are all correct colors – the latter is reported to be the color used on the 2005 movie cars. A third color you will find on replicas is Vitamin C Orange, which appears very light, making it look the least authentic. The group General Lee Replica photo to the right shows the various colors on a collection of General Lee replicas from the 25th Anniversary Jump Show. The lightest is the Vitamin C Orange, the darkest is Flame Red, and in between lies Hemi Orange.
