slomove Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 (edited) In the paint job thread I challenged you guys to guess the vehicle this paint code was borrowed from. Some good guesses so far (without even seeing the pictures) but nevertheless not correct. Remember the correct answer will win you an 8-hour passenger trip up and down the Angeles Forest Canyons (repeat: accommodation and airfare NOT included) Now here it is ....and no, it is not School Bus Yellow and it is not Taxi Cab Yellow nor is it Mazda Competition yellow.

slomove Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 (edited) Now that is funny, the forum software removed my directly linked picture. I put it in again, let's see if it sticks. ..........Hmm, no it does not. I can not link to a picture here, you have to use to use the Picasa link above. Otherwise I begin to wonder if this should better be under "Off Topic". Gert Edited August 5, 2009 by slomove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taber10 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I don't know what you call it, but it certainly looks great--esp. compliments that polish job on the bare metal. Taber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scannon Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Gert, Whatever the color is, it looks great! All new paint and a fresh polish job on the ali. Stunning. Is it the yellow from the Cobalt SS? Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnCh Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I like that color! It goes really well with the polished aluminum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7veloce Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Porsche speed yellow! Am I right on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim F. Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I'm almost sure the color is Caterham yellow. Without a side-by-side of my car to compare, it's awfully close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxologist Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 yellow from a Honda S2000? and yeah, the polish job on aluminium sure is a looker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11Budlite Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Since I'm at work and can't view any of the pictures, I'm just guessing that it's John Deere yellow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowss7 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Looks great. Not sure I'd like to polish all that Aluminium, Doesn't look like my Ferrari yellow, but it does look similar to Lotus yellow. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scannon Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 John Deere yellow? I've heard that John Deere yellow and green are very close matches to the original Lotus 7 BRG and yellow. Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slomove Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 I would say that John Christensen is on the right path (box-wise) but not entirely there yet. Think a slightly bigger box.... Gert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
