I remember seeing a ragtop at Maple Grove about 10 years ago, but I don't have a pic. Haven't been able to see one online either. Anyone have a pic? Bonus points if it's a Judge!

It's a car color.

There was no body color called sandlewood for 70. Sandlewood was available as a color for the convertible top, vinyl top and interior color only. What pictures are you looking for? I have this GTO with sandlewood interior.

Here is a 71 A-body in Sandlewood.

Had the exact car, brown vinyl top too

Is the 1970 color, Sierra Yellow (I think), the same?

Way different. Don't think they had Sandlewood 70 and no Sierra Yellow in 71. There are several factory pics floating around of 71 GTO vert in what looks like Sierra Yellow, a color that never offered in that model year.

Kinda like those early 70's earthtones myself. There was a Sandlewood 71 GT-37 (blue sword stripes) car for sale a few months back on Criagslist for cheap. Looked nice with those stripes and rally II's.

Is this '70 the same color?

theres a 71 sandal wood lemans sport convertible on our local craigslist, one owner all original and very nice, i cant find it right now, but its been for sale for a time..its a sport so it has buckets...and its a 3 speed stick on the column...very unique, lots of big pics on the ad, i will see if i can find it later tonight

I had a '71 in Sandlewood, but I don't think I have pix before I put it in black primer

[Diego]

Thanks for the pics, but I'd like to see a GTO.

Just pretend the link posted has a T41 nose

Sierra Yellow is completely different - not even close.

Regarding that factory photo, I've always wondered what the deal with the color was, but I find it strange it was painted a color that wasn't available. Do you think some tint was added over the years? Logically, that car should be Sandalwood.

[Diego]

That's a white '70.

[marxjunk]

i figured it out, thats why i deleted, i blew up the PHS and its ivory.....i need an eye exam..it doesnt look white to me..lol

[Held for Ransom]

He is looking for a picture of a '71 GTO, painted Sandalwood.

[455conv]

Oh, i see. I'm a 70 guy. Didnt realize sandlewood was available as a body color...Must be rare. Not even any on the ultimate GTO site.

[Diego]

That's because that site sucks.
