Hello
My 1971 442 was original bamboo what your think about that color i dont no now what color I paint the Car
My favor is bittersweet
have anywone a pic with a 1971 442 or Cutlass with Bamboo
thank you

 

I believe this is bamboo.

 

Post a picture of your car. Here is a 70:

 

Someone else has a bamboo car too!!???

It's pretty close to the color in my picture, it's faded a tad since some web designer painted it 10 years ago. Currently my car is on primer and it'll be painted in about a week or so by yours truly.

Long story short: Bamboo --> BEST COLOUR EVER!!!!

 

Not sure I ever saw one in real life but the photo sure makes it look great.

 

the color of my car also came Bamboo. I was undecided which color I wanted to paint the car and the paint store that I bought my paint suggested just paint it the original color. That is what I did. here are a few few pictures of the painting I did. I finally got the fenders and the hood back on yesterday.

Looks cool
please the finall pic mine was also original bamboo but i dont now wath I do
with tha color

 

 

The '71 "S" posted by Texas442 might be sandalwood, though the lighting inside of the building could be affecting it.

 

Bamboo? I thought that color was called saffron?

 

Bamboo is more of a cream yellow than saffron...a little less yellow in it.

 

Mine originally was bamboo, but at the moment it's black with the tan top. I'm undecided as to what I want to do with it once I actually get to the work it needs.

 

 

Love my bamboo 71 I was going to change the color, but my painter suggested to keep it original. I am so glad I did.

Gary (GH5168), your car has come out so nicely! Congrats!
