The rebuilds were Forest Green, but with years of crud buildup, I could not tell semi gloss or lusterless FG. Thanks or the answer. The frame will be 2430, or at least 23070.
Thanks

If the dash panel is in good shape (bolt on, full width, left to right, do not need glove door or instrument panel, I could use it.
Where are you located?
Thank you |
