Whoo Hoo, nice indoor winter project you got there. Congrats!
Even though you haven't asked I'm gonna vote for keeping her yellow!

Will stay Sulfur Yellow! I've had my eye out for a yellow 1976 for a while. Don't see many in Pennsylvania (not sure why), so I drove for 6 hours to MI to buy this one. The PO's took pretty good care of her - aside from the Vetter stuff and wire harness butchering - but that is all fixed now.
