Leaf green? Primrose yellow???

Bill, primrose yellow when it was on the showroom floor was in my opinion gorgeous!! It did fade to a pretty boring color after a few years though. Hopefully better paint nowadays.

They are both swell, but yellow may be more visible in dim light and therefore safer. Plus I know a hot babe who insists sportscars should be yellow.

Smart girl, this is a scan of the picture the guy took at Road America. I am fond of yellow myself. (I forgot the lounge chairs were strapped on the back).

I have a Bugeye I am rebuilding and it is going to be Primrose. But I also plan on using a lot of chrome because Yellow is a hard color to make glitter. as mention earilier it apears dull. But I am going to install a chrome luggage rack, chrome wire wheels with old school whitewalls, chrome front bumper, a rear anco chrome bumper, buff windsheild & surround etc...and to top it off hope to find a clip on hard top to paint old english.

But to solve your problem do as I have planned. I wanted a deep metallic red bugeye color and wife wanted yellow. you cann't decide if green or yellow. I just purchased another bugeye so I can have both of the colors I like.
