WoW nice, I doubt that anyone could walk away from a find like that, GM or Ford guys incl.

I like the clean no-bumble-bee or trunk spoiler look.

I'm sure Barry Washington would like to learn more about this car - would you consider adding it to his registry?

www.hamtramck-historical.com

You'll also notice his website is one of the best resources for Mopars.

I will do my best to drive it there, it runs a drives fine, as well as register it with barry and also the convertible registry. I have spoken many times with barry over the years, and he is one of the best stand-up mopar guys around. Not too many like him.

The window sticker shows $189 for an AM with 8 track STEREO! and its still in the car. Car was also built with the elastomeric front bumper (nice suprize yesterday), ofcourse its missing now unfortunately.

Its wierd they rolled the lips of the front fenders on this car, like a hemi fender. Maybe all 15&quot; wheeled cars got this?

tires on it now, same ones as in 1973 pictures:

super rare 8 track stereo with 3 speaker dash and cross over..

factory rolled fenders? why on a 340 car?

what's the tire/wheel code on the broadcast sheet? Many cars slated for 15&quot; wheels had the fenders rolled - it wasn't just a hemi thing. The E60-15 cars (most likely the size yours came with) got it too...More often than not it was missed by the assembly line guys though

enjoy.

also possible the fenders were replaced with factory sheet metal due to an accident at some point - the rolled fenders were often seen on parts counter pieces
