    Looks great, 1970 Buick Seamist green is a home run color.

    Amazing to think there was a time when green paint was considered the kiss of death color wise. And now...stunning.

    You know Frank, no matter what other color you may have had your car painted it would never look any better than it does right now in BLACK!:)
