Yellow was never my fave colour but....

My Dads trucks were always yellow when he was an owner driver, my volvo was yellow, the SJ is yellow and white and the Sammi has ended up yellow.

Mainly due to a surplus of 30yr old cellulose yellow paint.

Yellow is cool. How about some black spots too?

This is the Lada me and my mate used to rally a few years ago, yellow with black spots :smokin:

Like it. Even suits it, Lada being a mustard yellow not a bright yellow.

Oh it was bright. It was painted at a place at a place that does road repairing machines. We just asked for yellow, the brightest you have.

When I gave up rallying my son did karting and we followed the theme on.

Maybe I should do mine that colour and bin the Buzz Lightyear idea.

Yellow with black spots is an idea. Like a jaundice dalmation.
