Greetings!
I'm thinking of picking up an early to mid '70 cb750 to restore. If I pickup something that's been repainted and can't find any of the original spray might their be paint codes somewhere on the bike? It's easy enough to find what colors were offered for what years in the US, and that Honda didn't include color codes in their vin/sn's at that point. But I can't find any info that clearly states whether or not the color codes were anywhere on the bikes like possibly the painted parts. If not I assume it's considered proper (if you want a color correct restore) to repaint it any of the colors offered on that's year's vin?
TIA!
John
