    Color question: was Bahama Yellow offered on '66 911s?

    I saw what appeared to be an original '66 in this color and subsquently had someone tell me it wasn't available until '67. I know a lot about LWB cars, but not that much about SWBs.

    The books I have on hand indicate Bahama Yellow was available for the 1966 911 model year.

    The earliest in my database is 302581, but it was an eBay car and I don't have proof of originality.
