- Does anyone have a breakdown of paint codes or know where to go on the Web for them? My '77 was built in Dec '76, it is yellow. I am trying to figure out if it is INCA Yellow or what? Thanks Shane

- If it's original, and it's sort of a bright yellow on a '77/'76- chances are it's Inca. If it's original paint and an older car, and the yellow is softer, more pastel-it's Primrose. Then, there's a
