Looks sweet! What's the story on the car? Where did it come from? How long have you owned it? How long have you been working on it? What sheetmetal did you replace if any?

Thanks, I've owed the car for about 12yrs. Got it out of New Mexico, motor spun a bearing in 1974, they took the motor out and the car was parked ever since. It's got 54,000 original miles, two owner car. It was a hard 54,000 miles. Car was hit it left front and rear quarter. It was a 70's repair where they cut the frame rail and just welded it up. Quarter was replaced with about the same quality of repair. I replaced the entire frame section from another new mexico car and had a quarter put on to fix the gap and door jam area. The entire rest of the car is the original metal including floors and trunk pan. No pitting at all and in great shape.
Ya'll Mopar types stay on outa New Mexico ya hear... this here's my stompin grounds. Besides all the Mopars are already sold long ago...nothing to see here

I did the same thing. I was starting to think that I was the only J/k, the car looks great and all your work looks incredible. Keep the pics coming. Dave

Yeah, I replated all of the door hardware. for that matter, I replated everything on the entire car. I replated every nut and bolt, even the ones no one will ever see. My friends call it the brand new 1969 Plymouth.
What did you end up doing for the tail lite and trunk bezels? Re-plate or re-pops?

What a combo. There was a red on pewter with four speed for sale this year, but I couldn’t swing it that very second. The red combos are awesome.
I want my fair share

A local guy had a red 69 GTX convertible with four speed. I recall he said the interior was white.
