I don't know if this will help or not. My car is supposed to be Placier Gold. But the guy said it was a little off. Take a look at the links below, and my website. But remember, THIS IS A SHADE OFF! I'm just trying to give you something to look at. Cal

Seems to me that the Placer Gold is a more yellow than 72elky presents.

In fact, the color that you are looking for was available on the Corvette a couple of years earlier. Believe they called it WarBonnet Yellow or something to that effect on the Vette.

The corvette color was slightly different and carried a different formula number.
I used to have a 72 monte in that color.
Sorry, but I couldn't find any pictures of it.

I tried to send you some pictures of a Placer Gold 71 about a month ago, but they back as undeliverable. Send me a good address and I'll resend on Friday or Sat.
