Backyard find, 1970 T/A RAIII

[Baron Von Zeppelin]

If the car was selected to have Full Size Spare versus Space Saver (either/or - no cost alternate - not an invoice item) he might find a JW in the trunk.

Every little JW helps !

No keys to the trunk yet but here's a pic of the matching VIN on the block and the cowl tag.

Never knew California could do that to a car.
Terrible shame it had to happen.

The 70 TA's from VanNuys plant usually have a build sheet in the rear seat springs.
He can save himself the PHS money if he gets that.

These cars pretty much document themselves anyhow when found like this.
7040570 WN Cali emission carb
cast iron intake
#12 heads
big RA exhaust manifolds
VIN on block and trans
VanNuys may have stamped VIN up higher on the block face closer to the passenger head - than the typical area alongside timing cover.
Fremont did that - fwiw.

Never seen one with power locks that didn't have power windows also.

The JW's were probably stolen.

Vin up top only on Freemont cars

The Ram2 Roundport cars didn't go mainstream until Mid-May build dates.
That guy knew this factoid - and rolled the dice since it was a late production car.

Only 3 Convertibles known to still exist, and 13 Hardtops known
No special badging or special heater boxes or yada yada

4 convertibles and a few more hard tops I’ve got to get you up to date one of these days

Might can get one made from the glovebox lock at a locksmith.
Or pull the back seat and use about 3 extensions to remove the trunklid latch.

I heard today it has been sold for $11K.

The fourth car FB is green black black
I’ve seen many Atlanta and Framingham cars and they’re all Vin numbers at the bottom of the block in a typical area
