May be possible,
There was a place in Athens, GA that restored several DC-3's, but I am not
sure of the earliest project. Used most for frieght haulers, but it is
possible they restored one to look like it?

Southwest Airways routes definitely did not extend to Atlanta. Southwest
ceased using DC-3s around 1955 and in 1958 changed it's name to Pacific
Air Lines, so I don't see how you could have seen Southwest Airways DC-3s
serving Hartsfield in the late 70s.

Perhaps a privately owned restoration? I definitely saw a pristine DC-3 in
that livery taxi by at Hartsfield in '78 or '79.
