    My 70 GS has a paint code of 50 according to the chart translates out to Bamboo Cream.

    Original colour inside of the door panels and inner windshield pillars resembles a butternut yellow.

    Appears no yellow was offered in 70 except for the GSX which is much brighter than what I have.

    Car was repainted in Bamboo cream probably due to the paint code on the trim tag. Trying to restore to original. Can any one comment on this.

    Thanks

    yellow

    If your avitar is the car your talking about, the bamboo cream in the pic appears lighter than what I have perceived Bamboo Cream to be. Can you post pics of the car and maybe the innner area also?
