After I sold it in primer, a guy with a shop painted it. Not crazy about the color combo.

The car was detailed out pretty good, I had all the parts with it. The drivetrain was really thought out good. I had a 452, Eheads, custom cam, stout 727 and they rebuilt a worn out Dana from the car I traded for. I put my good spare Dana in the 68 Charger I got that was pretty much done.

Anyway, after the yellow repaint, I saw it was listed on Ebay in FL. The guy that had it then had no idea about the car and even mistated many things about the car. I never saw it again but I will remember the VIN forever.

I noticed it has two brake pedals :drive:

Saw that too; just figured the photo was taken prior to the 727 install.

I guess I'll just have to agree to disagree with Roadcuda & Plymouthfan on Bahama Yellow. Of all of the available factory colors for 1969 that is BY FAR my least favorite. But, as been noted countless times before, EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion - and I am merely sharing mine. Of course I have flippin' pealescent pink Camaro so what do I know about colors...

I think those are two different cars.

The butterscotch one has a black dash white A pillars and looks like white seats. I'll bet the white car in the avatar has the brown interior and three pedals.

Butterscotch is one of those colors, that with the car set up right, looks good. Before I found the yellow car, I found one for sale on mCGs site. It had a black top, Keystones, and a nice stance. That one looked sharp. But I saw one at The Nats this year, A12 car, with the black wheels, that I didn't care for.

The Butterscotch car has a white gut. I think it looked funny when I saw it.

The current 69 is the white one with a tan gut.
