California car. 2. It is not undercoated and all of the virgin under body metal can be seen with ease. 3. It has been repainted in the original color and is driver quality paint. 4. When the original. cracked. smelly. rubber floor mat was pulled up. it took about 1/2 of the metal in the front floor pans with it in a big sheet. The car had leaked at the wiper posts (still does) and water had collected in the jute backing and rotted the front floor pans at the lowest points ONLY. This is not visible from under the car. I chose to fiberglass mat and resin this area on the inside for strength rather than replace the floor pans in this area as it is only visible if you pull the rubber floor mat. The only other rust on this car is under the battery tray from battery acid leaking. 5. I have an aftermarket fiberglass Hemi hood scoop (available at extra cost) TRIM: 1. What there is. the bumpers have been re-chromed. 2. The grille and surrounds have been refinished. There is a small ding in the left surround from someone recently backing into it at a repair shop. 3. The front and rear windshields trims is very good. 4. There is one Coronet script that is broken and needs to be replaced. TIRES AND WHEELS:1. Black steel REAR wheels 15" X 7" with factory chrome lug nuts. 2. New PR225X15” drag radials. 3.

Fender tag and broadcast sheet match the S. O. # on the radiator core support. 3. First title for this car is in my name. "A" box original miles at 3661 miles. 4. Original V. I. N. tag indicating model and engine. as does the fender tag and the broadcast sheet. 5. Letter from Chrysler Historical regarding IBM card request. WHAT IT NEEDS:1. The dash pad is sun cracked and needs to be replaced. 2. The steering wheel under the wrap is sun cracked and needs to be restored. 3. Front end alignment and a little tweaking here and there. 4. New window track felt/cat whiskers A FEW EXTRA PARTS:1. A set of 4 nice original hub caps2. An original Inland shifter handle. These items go with the car. I also have all receipts and machine card for this car. The car was factory equipped with only ONE option. the 426 dual quad Hemi Head engine. The 4 speed was standard as was the heater. A radio was optional and this car was NOT ordered with one. The standard items that you got when ordering the Hemi with the 4 speed were the police suspension. (later called Hemi suspension) police brakes. a Dana 3. 54:1 Sure Grip rear end. H. D. cooling system. and some Hemi specific frame strengthening components. The heater was removed after the car was delivered and has the factory heater control delete plate was installed on the dash. it must have been done very early in the cars life when the plate was still available. I still have the original heater and it goes with the car. I hesitate to refer to this car as either restored or a survivor as it is a little of each but does not qualify in my opinion as either. This was not a rotisserie restored car. but rather replacing/repaired keeping the car as original as possible. It is not a rotisserie restoration as the front clip was never removed. but the entire drivetrain WAS removed. as well as all of the suspension leaving just the body shell. The underside was repainted in an original type primer paint look. It is not a paint dob. grease pencil. cosmoline coating restoration. Rebuilt assemblies were painted without consideration to these silly things. If that is what you are looking for keep moving. it is not this car. The car only had 3600 miles on it and had some modifications (which have now been changed back to original) over the years it was raced but had never been cut up. caged. tubbed or anything like that. I forgot to mention that this car has been upgraded to a dual master cylinder. Too dangerous at the end of the 1/4 mile in this car to trust a single. I have an N. O. S. single master cylinder in the box that goes with the car. On Feb-19-15 at 17:40:07 PST. seller added the following information: MY PHONE # IS 928-239-0017
