Another masterpiece from GLM. I love the cars that were being offered just before the changeover to military vehicles.

That's a 1941 Buick factory color?

@chris 

To be honest, probably not. I think it is too dark of a yellow. Buick’s factory color was a more creamy yellow. With that, I still love the overall look of the model and the brighter color really stands out.

Buick had a color in 1941 called Sequoia Cream, just as they did even up to the '47 Roadmaster:

005

But as you say John, it is much more creamy than the GLM shade.

The 1941 top up is Sequoia Cream. It doesn't appear to be yellow. I also have the Black open top. Both are among my favorite GLM models.
