does the Ontario Orange change shades from different years? As I look thru different ads it looks like the 72 Ontario Orange is more copper color and the 73 is more of an orange. Is it just me seeing things?

That can happen as manufacturers change formulations for various reasons.  Paint blended from different batches of base paint can be slightly different as well.  Even putting different brands of wax on two identical cars can give a different look to the same color paint.
