It isn't yellow but....

Med Garnet Red Metalic, mid 90'2 Caddy color. Looks good on my vette.

Staying on topic, I think that color would look good on a Strat too.

(AHEM......!)

Seriously digging that "off-road" exhaust system, Jeff.

8) 8) 8)

(and yes, it is a very fetching color for a Stingray)

Arjay,
Of course, I would NEVER think of driving it on the street with that exhaust system. :mrgreen:

Yep, 76 Stingray. She runs pretty good too. Have a small leak in the radiator right now and need to take it to a radiator shop and have it fixed. Not a bad leak, about a cup each time I run her but thost things never get better by themselves.

Jeff, yep sweet car...and nope those leaks never fix themselves. I just replace the rotors and pads on my 97 with slotted and dimpled, zinc coated...what a difference and on the way home I just hit 39K miles!

Sorry about hijacking the thread!

Hard to find as it was a 1996 Custom Shop Limited Edition of 10 !
And the color is effectively called "Corvette Yellow"

This reminds me of the yellow Corvette I bought new in the 70's. You could see the primer showing through on the bottom third of the car in bright sunlight. They don't make them like they used to, thank god!

I have a graffiti yellow strat and love it. I get compliments on the tone as well as the paint. Kick $@!! I've had it for 21 years, and still looks pretty good. It has a rosewood neck, which I think looks better than the maple. Great freaking guitar!

However, I lack computer savvy so adding a pic has proven to be a little tough for me. [C:\Documents and Settings\jbennett2\Desktop\Misc. Media Files\My Pictures\Guitar related Pictures]
