The paint code on it is Y2 . it a 1969 code
 
I'm not against yellow (my '70 'cuda is Lemon Twist), but know that yellow attracts bugs. I think they see it as a big flower. You'll have to get used to bees and flies and gnats swarming around and crapping all over it. You'll spend a lot of time cleaning that stuff off.

Check your compressor for oil. If it is a newer unit it could have a oil shut off built into the unit that will not let the compressor run when it is low on oil. I know my unit did the same thing once before. When I finally checked the oil and added some it started right up. I had no clue that my old(er) compressor would do that.
 
that is one cool strip on the back of your dart ..

it was low on oil i did put some in it and it stiil did not start.
I have had it about 4 year now so who knows if it has an shut of val on it.
 
Thats the color i was look for but mine is more yellow then that . may buy a 1/2 gallon of white and mix them together and hope it lighting up some..
 
Mine actually does look a little more yellow than that. I think sitting in the shade makes it look a little duller.
 
Get a longitudinal stripe. Made mine look like a completely different car.;
