Interior and Misc
Interior is original, it is usable. We scrubbed, cleaned and detailed the interior, Removing seats and carpet. We took care to reinstall all original cardboards and associate insulation. The car sat in the sun for years so there is color fading, the door panels are rough on the tops. The rubbers are actually not bad. It’s kind of amazing to see an original patina’d interior like this. Seats are solid and comfortable, the gold in the upholstery still shines, rare fold down armrest bench seat. Headliner is nice. Heater, gauges are all in place but do not work. Lights, blinkers all work. Windows all work. We removed all inner door panels and cleaned and greased all mechanisms for the front and rear windows.
The trunk is in nice shape and retains its spare jack, the inner cardboard quarter insulation is in place along with original trunk mat.
Chrome and trim are all in place and in really nice shape. No pitting as we are a dry state.
Original 15 inch factory police wheels with some reproduction Firestone redlines. The tires are in great shape, expensive and look great but ride quality is that of a bias ply.
This is what I call early rat muscle. It’s a true rare survivor with wear but a completely fun driver now. Fast car, and a sleeper. Rare Mopar Muscle that should go to a collector. It would be a great one to restore or just enjoy and show as-is.
Very cool find that you won’t see again. This was one of the personalcars so we have experience behind the wheel of this one.
Call us with any questions, be happy to help.
