    I have a question, I want to get the color right for a 1976 360WR tank, I have the code from Vol. 21 of the husky club newsletter for Maroon, but it dose not list the 76 model, and I have seen this tank in more of a purple color. Dose anyone know, is it purple or maroon?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Great pics, but the steel tank looks pink. Definitely doesn't look like the Cut sheet picture. Thanks, so the steel tank and the aluminum tank were diferent colors? Is the steel tank in the picture painted the rotaviolet 82N color?

    Thanks

    Hello,
    How's things in the Burg. I'm originally from Pittsburgh. I saw your thread about your 76 360wr. I just picked one up and wanted to know if you EVER found out the paint color/code for the gas tank.

    Thanks

    Are you using '77 clamos? I read here the '77 clamps and leading axle fork wont fit the '75-'76 frame because the front wheel hits the down tube at full compression.
