Do you know how RARE Citrus Green is on a 1970 CHevelle. I say leave it Original! I would if it were mine, JMO.

Others may say.... since it`s Special Order paint.....you could choose any 1970 Blend of GM paint.

TOTALLY disagree with that logic.

The cool thing about this car is that it has the color code on the data plate, so the original color won't be lost to posterity. While I feel the car should go to a person who will respect its pedigree, at least he knows if he changes the color it won't be a total loss.

IMO i think who ever owns that car and does not choose to put back the Citrus Green will be a big mistake.
That color is Nice. Maybe these photos will change your mind.My vote is putting back the color the car was born with.

The one with blk stripes look to be a LS5.It looks like it has a castiron intake.
