If your yellow appears to be slightly green, it may actually be GY3 Curious Yellow aka Cintron Yella.  That is a 71 only color that has a hint of green in it.  It never really photographs well as camera tend to wash out the yellow. 

BTW - Car Looks AWESOME  :2thumbs:

The original T/A hoods had tabs on the edges that engaged the anti-rattle wedges on the fenders when the hood was closed.

I do not see them on your hood.

T/Ake care,
