Not sure why it's seen a "clashing" because yellow and green are complementary. Perhaps the brightness of the day-glow yellow was not the type of Earthtone that normally goes with the adamantly Earthtoned green interior, but yellow/green is a typical combo of the era. :twocents:

I love Goldenrod/Daytona yellow to be honest but with that green top is definitely a mismatch in my opinion but it's just an opinion.

I think my comment was misinterpreted (my fault). Yellow/green isn't really clashing, my point was that while this Firebird is an unusual combo, it's more subtle than some other examples we've seen, and there were many clashing colors in the late 60's.
