Very nice 1972 W-30…those were such cool cars! It reminds me a bit of the In-Line tube guys 1972 W-30 that was shown at the MCACN show!

That green W-30 is just beautiful as that color just pops.

I have never seen one in that shade of green before. Very nice.

Steve, that shade of green was actually used by all 4 divisions in 1972. Oldsmobile called it Radiant Green, Pontiac called it Julep Green, Buick called it Heritage Green, and Chevrolet called it Spring Green. I just saw a 72 Buick GS in Heritage Green at a car show last week, and a 72 Firebird in Julep Green at another show.

Some people call this color &quot;Scope Green&quot; after the famous mouthwash. Some people love it, some people hate it. I actually like it!

The GS and the 442 make me drool, especially.

Love that color.
