The interior is all original and in amazing condition including the dash pad which has no cracks, interior panels are really nice, not scratched up or chalky, seat belts show very minimal wear or fading. The original carpet is not worn out. The original owner did cut out a small section of carpet under the drivers floor matt and made a secret hiding place for something like keys or emergency money.The drivers seat bottom has a circular mark about 4 inches in diameter.The knob for the rear speaker switch is missing. The car was bought new in CA and lived there it’s whole life. The car was never rusty and has had a repaint. The body is straight and all panels appear to be original. The drivers lower quarter has some filler due to a minor incident. The shaker hood is original. The paint looks very presentable. No dents or scratches. There are some imperfections in the paint that are visible under Florescent lights when looking closely. The car gets many compliments from anyone that sees it. The car is an unmolested, highly optioned car that was loved and cared for it’s entire life. The door jams and engine compartment are still in original paint. All body numbers match: Dash tag, fender tag, door sticker, cowl and rad support. The VIN pads on both the engine and trans are blank. This could mean a few things. The factory never stamped them, bought over the counter or they were both replaced under warranty. I would lean towards the never been stamped theory. Galen Govier the authority on MOPARS has documented this fact on other cars. The bottom of the car is very clean and original. Look at the pic of the floor pan and notice the original primer and no pitting. Engine starts right up and runs smoothly, the trans shifts nicely and show no signs of any issues. Exhaust is stock and most likely the original system. The car sounds quiet. The original radiator has a leak was replaced with a new one. The original radiator is included with the car. The tanks can be removed from the original and installed on the new one. The trunk floor is solid with no rust. It was painted black for protection by the original owner.This is an early built car that came from the factory with some items left over from the 1970 model year. They include the rear spoiler, console and early 71 style bucket seat frames. Recap: A car like this does not come along very often. This car came from the factory as you see it with EV2 high impact paint, Shaker Hood, Billboard Stripes, Rear spoiler, painted mirrors and color keyed grill.
