Let me guess: You peeled off the dashboard cover and found orange, on a car of another color, Right? Why would I guess that? Because my green '74 has an orange piece of steel as the top frame of the dashboard.

I read somewhere that during assembly at the factory, this part was installed after the tub was painted, but since it hidden by the dashtop cover, no effort was made to match the color of the car when it was installed. If I recall correctly, other colors in addition to orange were also used.
