I too like green mopars.
Maybe this should be moved to the project section so it doesn't fall off the board after a week or two.

Is this the shock tower support?
Can't tell if it's my eyes not processing the picture right.

Yes, it trianguates the inner fender brace and ties in the shock tower support into the firewall. Tim

I love it. I just started cutting apart my 68 Road Runner for restoration. I have a pile of AMD metal to back onto the car. I am going back the original TT1 green, which is a little darker than what your looks like. After sanding through the layers of pain, I found dark green, silver, black, and the last resale red coat on top.
The hard part is deciding to keep the green interior or go with a black gut.

I have the green interior and it is nice but you can't beat a black interior...
