Re: My yellow 75 finally gets love
As the story says, the original owner bought the sulfur yellow body panels in 76, he must have liked them, as do I. It is the way I got it. Love it. I do have a yellow 76 too. Like them bothpidjones wrote:Beautifully done. One question, why choose yellow for a '75?
