That has been for sale for 6 months or so. Bamboo Cream is not the hottest color for a GS..

Those Chinese boosters stick out like a sore thumb don't they?

yes, I never understood the 'flesh tone' color either but someone liked enough to order it this way, and its a no reserve auction so he must getting serious about selling.

It’s all in the name. Change it from “Bamboo Cream” to “Gobi Beige” and people sure seem to like it more. It would’ve been even more popular if GM would’ve stopped fooling around with misleading color names and just called it “Yellow”! They’re both GM paint code 50 for 1970.

I have a Bamboo Cream 70 Stg1 4 speed with a burnish brown top and interior. Mine has the same wheel and tire combo and the car is so cool to me. I don't mind the color at all but I must say that the top helps break up the yellow but that's me.
