Yes, the brown ones are sought after, as they were unique to the brown dash of the Champagne Edition buses of 1978 and 1979, A Champagne owner should be interested.
You could sell it in the classifieds for more than a black one, I expect. And you could check the classifieds for a black one to replace it. _________________ John

Yeah ok, hopefully someone will just swap me a nice black one for the nice brown one and then I will be happy, if not I will put it in the classified |
