The black 70 was really sweet. The 68 442 was nice, but that's crazy money for a non-W car.

I know people with money over-pay at these events for cars that they really like, but the yellow 71 W30 got me.

You go to that level of restoration on a rare car like that and then blow it (my opinion) by drilling holes in the deck lid and installing the wing. Serious pet peeve seeing this on a rag top.

For that kind of money, it needs to be right........

It need to be an Olds Color, something close to original interior color and top.
That car started as #42 green, white top,white stripes and green interior. Why it was painted Corvette Yellow I will never know.
