stradacab Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 81 and pine green was a GT/J colour, but if it is a 3 clock dash can't be that..... They did do a short run of Manta DL's (advertised as a GL) around 81, maybe be one of them?! I'm sure someone with more knowledge can correct me if I'm wrong.
