Thanks! I've added it to the Registry. You can see some of the original light blue paint under the ID tag.

Also, you mentioned earlier that you thought it was probably a '68....is this still correct? Trying to get some parts for it....

The year really doesn’t matter much for parts as all are interchangeable in probably 99% of the cases, especially the mechanical parts.

I think it's what's called Sora Blue. Here's a thread with color charts, you can search here for others. viewtopic.php?f=32&t=1729&p=24270&hilit=color+chart#p24270

Yes, it is a '68. As Esteban said most parts are interchangeable. It's when you get into body parts, lights and seats that things are less interchangeable.
