1:43rd scale 1975 Cutlass

Hello Friends !

I am working on a 1:43rd scale 1975 Cutlass.



I am desperately looking for photos of actual 1975 Cutlass Colonnade. Also which interior color matches a Sebring Yellow body color ?

Many thanks for your help !

Well, the last year that sebring yellow was offered was 1970, and it was generally recommended to use black or pearl for the interior.

Sebring Yellow, Rally Red, Nugget Gold, and Agean Aqua were the special order paints which were indicated on the data plate with a "_" or "_ _". I have heard of some cars with these colors that have the paint code given rather than the "dash".

Rallye Red is 73 or 78 ...

Sebring Yellow

Many thanks to all of you for your replies.

According to a color paint chips sheet I purchased on Ebay, Sebring Yellow was still offered in 1975 ??



On the other side of this sheet, they are talking about interior colors and trim combination, but I can't understand to figure out the combination exterior/interior colors ???
