Hi Moonman,i dont recall anything you should worry about mate ;) but i dont know the History myself? just remember seeing it wor sale and thinking thats a good car :thumbright: i like the later Runners and there rare ;) i think the Plymouths got better looking at the end of the Musclecar era 8-)
Is the car a true Yellow car? have you decoded it yet? it can be a pain to decode later Plymouths as sites like www.mymopar.com normaly only give you decode info up to 71 :evil:
Good l;uck with the car i like it :thumbright: i also like that Silver 440 thats been for sale recently.

Blue they say as you get older your taste changes I remember a blue D100 that had colour coded steels and dog dishes on at the time I couldn't see what you liked in them. Now things have turned around and you don't like them and I do. I must say that I am with you that on the right car they look great but some cars they just don't suite

Cheers Doug
I think i will offer an opinion. Just for the hell of it. Others do so why not?

Well Doug. I LIKE yellow cars. Particularly with a white interior and stripes.

But I hate yellow and black cars. They always look to me like they have been given a cheap respray in the wrong colour no matter how well they are done. And it will always be compared to a Wasp or Bee. So think carefully about that.

If I liked steel wheels (which I do if they are wide enough) then I think yellow wheels on a yellow car would look cool. As long as the two yellows matched of course.

I see your point about yellow and black cars (the hood is satin black) Dave but ironically it will be a cheap respray as I'm doing it myself under my carport , but the yellow will only be temporary until a proper job can be afforded and I need to paint it some colour ,I couldn't have a white interior as according to my wife I am one of the grubbiest monkeys ever and would turn it grey almost immediately :oops: cheers Doug
