...many Yellow '74s aren't the "correct" color. It was NOT that Bright Yellow that they had in 1973, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978 or 1979. 1980 & 1981 was more of a Golden Tone Yellow. The original '74 Yellow was more of a softer pale yellow like the Safari Yellow of 1968.

i know there was onyl one color for the 74. but some people choose to repaint with aftermarket paint like "ferarri yellow" or some other paint. iim having trouble discerning between the origional and the aftermarket or just other yellow paints. Mainly i wanted to see how the yellow looked on the car.
