Looks like a ‘73 or ‘74 , first run to me
Serial #’s look about right, but I’ve been wrong before
Looks like it might have been built in Oct. ‘73 to Jan. ‘74 depending on serial numbers, give or take a few months.
The give away is the light green flocking tells me it’s a first run LDG
Maybe Ricky could chime in on this…

Mine's 5032, built 2-18-74. Gene Haugh sent me a copy of the factory ticket.
On the ticket, it says it was built by PM. Does anyone know who that may have been?
