The only pictures I have (from the Peterson archives) are B+W. I didn't ask if anyone remembers what color
they were because, well, you know......

Car Craft Magazine April 1975 maybe, incase you already haven´t checked. There are several copies on E-bay

IF they were Accel spark plug wires, they were definitely yellow.

One of my all-time favorite paint schemes and race cars. De-stroked 340 Mopar small-block.

I would agree. The Accel decal at the bottom of the front fender is their bright yellow and the wires in the black& white picture are of a lighter color.
Is there anything in the display case in the cover photo that would indicate what color wires are on it? My old eyes cant tell by looking at my computer screen.

New front fenders for the Leal B/MP Hemi Duster sectioned and tacked for additional
clearance in the front just like the originals.

The poster of this Pintrest picture stated it was a 1977 Landy Pro Stock. I noted it has an Accel sticker on the side and yellow wires showing.

May not help but....

You're probably right Charlie.

I would never think it would be this difficult to find a picture of anything Butch Leal!
