Hello,
I checked on this website for some specifications. They did not include the number of vettes by color for the 1974 year.

http://www.alarid.com/history/specs/74.htm

For 1974 the code for yellow was #956 Bright Yellow.
For 1975 the code for yellow was #56 Bright Yellow and 2,883 cars were made.

Maybe someone has the fact book for the 1974 year for you.

Oh its difficult to find how many cars were made in yellow. I got the specs for my car from GM...but alas not how many were in yellow. I just thought it would be interesting to know. Thanks for the replies.
