I’m assuming it’s a “rebuilt” title and if so you could legally drive it, which I would do aggressively and often. It’s a really nice combo and the formal roof e bodies are the only vinyl top cars I like.
I just found it intriguing that somebody felt the need to hand make those rivets instead of buying some or even just leaving them alone. Looks shady to go at it this way IMO.
I want my fair share

Nice Challenger. I like it a lot. I don't see M91-luggage rack on the fender tag. I'm assuming that the rack was added. IMO a much better option to add versus the wing.

I've always had a soft spot for racks on an E-body. Back in the day I put one on my 73 Challenger. I still have the car. However, after restoring it, I opted for a 71 wing, which I like also.

I wonder what's up with all the missing engine, trans and trunks paint? Somebody a little to aggressive with a Hotsy or the wash down after a salt bath? Appears to be a fresh bomb can job on the bottom side. A 4 spd would've had me Definitely would have to do some history checking. The title issue wouldn't scare me but the salt bath would. Current owner's had it for 10 years? OK, where did he get it from? are the body stampings present? Anyone notice the black speedo needle??? tach seems a bit faded as well

AC should work to pull the big bucks. No mention of it and I get a bad feeling when looking at the parts.

Facts are stubborn things.
