Harvest Gold
 
Does anyone here own a Harvest Gold colored car? I'd like to see some pictures. Maybe some pics of other Gold colored cars for comparison sake. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Joe you probably know.. What years and on what cars was that color available? I saw a 70 Chevelle SS on ebay awhile back and it was listed as being Harvest Gold/white stripes and top. Looked awesome. I thought I saved the pics of it but can't seem to find them. I want to do my '68 Olds in Gold/white. There a lot of different shades of Gold out there but that one car that was said to be Harvest Gold was the most striking I've seen. Want to see some other cars (or fridges) in the same color to see if it's the color I want. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

Paint code 58 Autumn Gold....

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...arFiles125.jpg

Original paint, spot painted in the back, driver's 1/4 and under the rear bumper...

Ken's Nova is the same color but with new paint... Member's rides area... HERE

A real new paint job in Autumn Gold can look turd green and striking gold depending on the sun.
Its a really period correct color that is not often seen. I love gold muscle cars....

Olympic gold (1969 Camaro) is one of my favorite golds of the 1960s...

You have to narrow down what era Harvest Gold you are referring to.
Harvest Gold was a shade GM used in different decades.
Here is a 1955 Belair Nomad painted Harvest Gold from that period.

Here is what GM considers Harvest Gold Today.

60's-70's.. neither of those colors resemble the color I'm thinking of.. The 55 looks more like gobi beige than gold https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif

Re: Harvest Gold
 
Actually, who knows what the salesman called gobi beige while selling a GB deuce at Stocker Chev?

PS: it wasn't harvest gold https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Re: Harvest Gold
 
I've heard it called Butternut Yellow,more then the correct Gobi Beige.
I call it COOL!
