Have you ever seen the Rochester pull-offs with the front half in Silver/gray plastic? I'm thinking these were not true NOS but likely NORS.

Ric' I have the correct NOS Rochester box with the original pull off, trust me..it is yellow/tan. Your logic would apply to the original grey ones as well, I have seen many original old grey ones and they have not yellowed.. You guys are welcome to beloeve what you want..the original pull off was yellow.The number assigned by Rochester was opnly used for 1970, unlike other ones where the number crosses to many models.. But as I said..you guys will believe what you want..thats fine..I know what is correct..
