I did inspect the bed and can see where it is yellow under the dark olive so clearly that is a replacement bed.
I did further inspect the fenders, hood, piece behind the hood with wipers in it, and can see where all were originally medium olive (unable to tell on portion between the chrome moldings).
That seems to make since with the medium olive interior.
Does it make since that a code 557 on a 71 would be medium olive?
Definitely looks like the VIN tag has been removed and or replaced. Here is what the VIN tags Rosette Rivets should look like.
