The one Vette I have is the DM '58 in Panama Yellow. It's one of my favorite colors for cars.  It's shame how boring most cars are today.  Silver and gray everywhere.  At least where I am in Calizuela. Yaaaaawn.

A favorite with all the right stuff...ZL-1 package, yellow paint side pipes, rally wheels and four speed transmission. Great pictures Tony.

Excellent pics!  The '65 is my favorite of the three.

Overall, yellow has always been my favorite color.  I like yellow shirts, I like yellow walls, I like yellow flowers...well, you get the idea.  And I do like yellow on certain cars.  In the Fifties and Sixties, cars wore yellow well on cars and also in two-tone combinations.  I like yellow on Muscle Cars, and I like the yellow on all of the Vette's shared here.  Great pics!  

And now a tip to you guys out there who don't like to paint walls, I've learned that all I have to tell my wife that I want to paint a room yellow, which seriously I wouldn't mind doing, but she doesn't like yellow, so I don't have to paint.  All of our wall painting over the years has been hired out, and none of the walls are yellow.  Smile

George, I got my walls painted yellow but in a very muted way - extremely pastel in nature; they call it Navaho White! Laughing Out Loud  

 

Just for you:
