Anyone going?  If so, what day and time?
They will have the order of the sales by lot number posted on the website on Wed., after I see that I'll decided whether Friday night or Sat.

at auction today,lots of butternut yellow cars. lots of vetts, no beaumonts, lots of 70 chevelles, are there more of them now than in 70. bought a hoist life is good.

I hear Butternut (a.k.a Mayfair Maize in Canada) is the new red. Did they fetch BIG money?

I did not stick around long enough to see  them sell,but some [butternut] were really nice. NEVER LIKED YELLOW,BUT I GUESS IT GROWS ON YOU,LIKE MOSS.

Funny how stuff grows on you - I never really took notice of the 69 full size Pontiacs, and certainly never had any intention of buying one, until I saw the 427 Parisienne coupe I now own.

Butternut is one of the more subtle yellows. It's really grown on me since I bought my Laurentian.

I like all the bright colors.. Easier to clean, and if I am going to, spend big money on a toy,  I want to be seen..

To each his own, Mayfair Maize/Butternut Yellow is probably my all time favourite GM colour. Had a LeMans and Grand Prix in this colour.

Todd, it looks great !!! Butternut yellow is one of the best 1960's GM colors-always liked it-was always worn on the norm-paint it black storey. She really looks great-the redlines really do it. Thats a great car hope it brings back a lot of memories. Imagine all the guys out there that have a "mainstream" car in their garage with no floor in it and will never get to drive yet they have more dollars tied up then you !
