It's reported in Craig T Bossler's book that this particular car was painted in the solid green scheme with the orange DF panel on the door.I've been searching for pictures because I would like to do this car in HO.My question concerning this car is simple and I hope someone has an answer.Did this car carry the hollow diamond or was the solid yellow diamond applied?
