      I used to hate that color (Lemonwood Yellow, later re-named butternut yellow) but I'm starting to really like it, as it's something different than the usual red, black, blue, etc.

      I've liked that color for a long time - my old hardtop 65 Malibu was pretty close to it (Crocus Yellow).

      Pretty slick ride. I'm working on some renderings for one of these cars right now and have gotten pretty hooked on the car myself.

      Wow, that's a sharp car! I love the stance and wheel/tire package. I think the 283 looks lost in that engine bay though. Come to think of it, even a big-block would look lost in there!

      It could use a big block thats for sure.......

      TPI monte ss- I think two 283's would fit side by side or one in front of the other?????
