Were the School bus yellow color first originated was from the Bud Moore Racing team, Ford thought the Red /black that was on the Race teams cars was to dull. They wanted a brighter more outstanding Paint color, The choice was School bus Yellow! Ford called it a bunch of fancy names but bud Moore said he went to a paint shop and asked for School bus yellow to paint the cars! It was not until the new Boss 302 came out that ford called the yellow school bus yellow!
