Thanks to all who took the time to comment and vote. I'm sorry I didn't do this beauty justice in my photo. That's real close to the color of the car I found parked on a side street in Charleston SC. Not mine . Well cared for except for the poop (as bestagent so astutely noticed) that I wish I could have cloned out. About all I did was crop the shot to omit distracting background stuff.

LisaAus: I tried to get my husband to break into the car, sit in the back seat and wave but, oddly, he refused!

I would have like to see a little more of the car, and perhaps even someone peeking in the window of the car.

Classic car. For a shot like this, IHO, you might have gotten better results if you had taken it in a wide open space on an overcast day (not always practical I know - especially if you don't own the car). Under these conditions you'd have little visible reflection and more, naturally saturated colour. Hope this helps. :)

Cool, a '71 or '72 Cutlass Supreme Convertible! I had a yellow '72.

This one's been babied. Nice catch for the orange challenge. Are you the owner or someone you know? Or did you just catch this one? The orange really stands out here and strengthens the shot.

would be much better pic if you could clone things a bit. (spots in paint on side and trunk)
