Hey y'all... can anyone say for sure (not guessing) what color NAPA racing shocks were in 1980? The internet isn't helpful on this subject. Most of the builds from this era have yellow shocks, which i thought are Monroe - please correct me if i'm wrong. I just don't want to paint the shocks the wrong color on a car that is sponsored by NAPA shocks ;)

Hey Dave, I'm going to text you a picture.

Of course I care..this would be a part of anyone doing a street stock type of build from the 80's era where class rules often stated "No racing shocks allowed, stock only"  Nothing more stock than shocks from the NAPA parts house.
  Thanks for sharing
