PICS.Another colour scheme on NEO's '57 Roadmaster Convertible

This time, yellow over white. I can't find a yellow in Buick's '57 colour schemes so is this just a figment of someone's imagination?

Antique Ivory was only color that even suggests yellow.

But there was no "in your face" yellow.

That is a really bright yellow. I saw it on someone's site, a bad color and I like yellow.

I like it as it yells "look at me".

Beside the color, which doesn't look very good, is there....

some parts missing from the steering wheel? Also, there doesn't appear to be a split in the front seat, to fold it forward to get into the back. The chrome molding goes straight across.

Wow Raymond, great catch there. What is up with that steering wheel ?

I have to pile on as well. I had the wagon version of this '57. Too narrow.

If there were no improvements to the convertible, it would be too narrow as well.
