it was registered may 71. so it is a '70 model right?

Looks like Neptune Blue.
Mine is this colour and 69 model.

There should be a sticker behind the passager seat that tells you the colour.
OR
Behind the drivers seat, can't remember without going out in the snow.

Hi!

As for year - i'd hazard a guess at a 71Model Year, as you are running 112pcd wheels with discs, not wide 5 and drums like a 70 would have. It's a post aug 70 build date , so discs. Mines July 70, hence drums, wide 5.

Check your m plate codes...they should tell you whether it was originally all one colour or split at the waistline.....

i don't have an m-plate, just the chassis number behind the drivers' seat.

anyway i had a pot of neptune made up today, it looks right. thanks for the help
