  2. Just an FYI- JPS was a cigarette sponsor ( the good old cigarette and alcohol advertisers ) with the black and gold scheme on their advertising before Smokey and the Bandit (1977) and the Dodge warlock (1976 -79). The Lotus had the JPS 'gold leaf' scheme in 1968 and going to the player special black/gold in 1972. so the Lotus was the originator of the black/gold scheme in the 70's greg
