68, is that interior done in the usual saddle color?
I ask because of the 7-8 Panels I have seen all of them have had the Saddle interior.I haven't found any documentation but I'm wondering if that was a standard color.

It is "fawn" interior.

Wow, That's about the cleanest panel I've ever seen. Has it been redone or is it original? It looks pretty stock except for some minor interior/exterior trim pieces.

BTW, That's just the hood I'm looking for!

Considering that these panels were work horses. This thing is in very nice shape. It is hard to believe it survived so well.

Well it does fit Those HD Springs it came with, really makes it stand tall.

Being practical, I probably am going to sell it. I would love to keep it, but I have my burb where I want it.....so, I will probably play with it for a few weeks and then haul it up to Chi town to sell.

Well it is in Phoenix now, a lot closer than Chicago. When I go back to visit, I like to take something nice to sell. I have other things I can take

You drove right done the road from me and didn't stop by to say HI ? j/k. Nice looking panel. I used to see one like that driving around Riverside all the time. But I think the wheels were different. Probably the same one. Wife was wondering what you stole it for, she likes it too. Of coarse you don't have to say. It's going to make somebody very happy.
