Well, that is certainly one of the nicest I've seen from the pics. What was the trunk like? So there was NO rust? not even a spec on the lower fenders, trunk floor, hood hinge mount, rear quarters behind the wheels, rear window channel? I wouldn't paint the inside of the car; too cool the way it is! Dave

AHA! then I was right; no such thing as a 100% rust free Mopar!
J/K, that is one heck of a car.....doesn't even look like the engine compartment needs paint..
Having a car like that to start with must be a huge treat!

Now that was a GREAT car to start with! Much better than having a made in Tawain patchwork quilt! And DaveP, my old FK5 'Cuda was as clean as this Challenger, but it had a little lower window corner rust too under the gator top How is this for a trunk floor? (see, they're not all rust buckets )

Why a treat! Those guys out there are used to those rust free cars. Now to us guys in the North, that would be a REAL TREAT!!!!!!!!!
Great car, keep posting pics!!
Here's one, extremely rust free for where it's been its whole life! Then again it only has 35k miles and hasn't been on the road since '77!!!!!! Original FE5, red shaker, 440-6, 4spd/console, 3.54 dana, ralley dash, completely #'s matching, mint B/S, original belts/hoses. Two color changes, then a third change started (newspapers taped over the rear bumper dated July 3rd and 4th 1983!) by the only titled original owner, who sold it in '85.
I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

I'm guessing the purple stripe on the over center spring?

original carpet - this will go back in as well, just needs a good cleaning. The fade should be covered by the console. I even found $.60 under under it and both the coins and the build date of 1970 match. Thanks assy line guys for contributing to the restore !!
Awesome car! Clean the car and fog it with SEM vinyl dye
