Orange is brilliant color on cars, and we can't help but to get in the mood for Halloween when we see them. Check out these festive orange cars.

1980 Jeep Cherokee Custom 4X4

This 1980 Jeep Cherokee instantly announces it's something custom the moment it arrives on the scene. Even if you didn't know, they never made an open-top version, the bold paint, lifted stance, custom interior, and the sound of the big V8 all make sure you know this is a genuinely unique 4x4. Many people forgot that the original Cherokee was prominent and in charge... but when they see this one, they'll never forget it again. The power dome hood, imposing wide grille, flared fenders, and well-creased body lines give this one an instant presence. And, of course, the orange radiates with an extraordinary boldness.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28

This stunning original X33, Code 72, Hugger Orange, RS Z/28 is the recipient of a complete frame-off restoration. It is powered by the original 302ci V8 motor which was only offered on the Z/28 Camaros. The engine was professionally rebuilt with all correct pistons, rockers, rods, and an 1178 crank. The numbers matching the DZ motor is paired with the numbers matching Muncie M-20 four-speed manual transmission. The selling owner notes that many of the mechanicals were refurbished by renowned Z/28 expert, Jerry MacNeish. As previously mentioned this example is finished in the original color of Hugger Orange and shows beautifully with the white LeMans stripes, cowl induction hood with power bulge, front and rear deck spoiler package, tinted window glass, 15x7 Rally wheels, chambered exhaust, and the original optional Enduro bumper.

1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440

The Dodge Challenger is the name of three different generations of automobiles produced by Dodge. However, the first use of the Challenger name by Dodge was in 1959 for marketing a "value version" of the full-sized Coronet Silver Challenger. From model years 1970 to 1974, the first generation Dodge Challenger pony car was built using the Chrysler E platform in hardtop and convertible body styles sharing major components with the Plymouth Barracuda. Introduced in fall 1969 for the 1970 model year, the Challenger was one of two Chrysler E-body cars, the other being the slightly smaller Plymouth Barracuda. Positioned to compete against the Mercury Cougar and Pontiac Firebird in the upper end of the pony car market segment, it was "a rather late response" to the Ford Mustang, which debuted in April 1964.
