The car was originally FY1 yellow with V6W (white side stripe) and white bucket seat interior.  Going back with that combo. I will be changing over to 70 bumpers though.  I had a brief thought of turning it into one of my dream cars, a 1970 AAR (changing quarters, fenders, tail light panel and grille) FC7 purple with white interior.   But just could not do it..... :banghead:

 :iagree:, keep the car original but DON'T install the 73-74 bumpers  :puke:, the 70 ones are awesome...

Already ordered new 70 front and rear bumpers, bumper guards and fillers!  Motor will be blue to look just like the 318 would have.  It is a very mild 360.   It made 410hp and 420ft lbs of torque.  Not really a hot rod, more of a cruiser!!!
