I have plenty of photos of my Riverside Gold convertible on my web page. The background color of the page is derived from a small jpg of my car, so it is RG also. LINK

I am glad to hear, it is a great color.
When my car have to be re-painted, then it will for sure be Riverside Gold.

Back in 2007, when I bought my car, I was only looking for Riverside Gold.

Please post pictures when your are done

Here is the car that I posted about earlier. Went and collected it last weekend.This is the first time it has been out of this garage in 20 years and as you can see it has just been left in that time,not touched,had only one flat tire. This is riverside gold originally with orange and then black paint,will go back to gold.Car was built between Christmas and New year of 1968,build date on trim tag is E26.From the tank sticker it was sold new by dealer 179 in zone 44 ,that is Gault Chevrolet in Endicott,New York.They are still in business ,I phoned them and as expected they don't have records that far back.

Instead of resurrecting an 11 year old thread, just start a new one.
