Default 1970 Formula 400

Making it drivable. Just put in new glass, rubber. Have most of the parts. I am looking for a rear bumper.

Also, I know this is the wrong Yellow, but does anyone know how far off this is from the GoldenRod? I plan on getting it repainted, the place that was supposed to paint it messed it up and lost alot of my parts. I just need to get it running now.

Cool.
Always hard to judge color from dig pics on the net, but I would say it looks pretty close to Goldenrod to me...

Yes, I just need to find the right interior parts, all mine are faded or as far as the plastic disinegrated.

Nice, I did get some paint and had the metal dash painted while the windshield was out, but I wasnt sure how to do the dash pad and the plastic. SO you used spray cans? Looks like it came out nicely. There is a place in San Diego and a guy they call Jimmy Chips who knows all the old 70's colors and how to match them. He mixed my interior paint.

Looks like it came out nice. Can I hit you up later for more details? I should be ready to start the interior in another month or so.
