Interior with all original wood grain, door panels, dash pad, pistol grip and back seat. All other original components were restored. Parts were very nice on this car.

That turned out great. Looks good without the hood stripes.
1970 GTX, work in progress...

Roger at the 70 GTX registry has not figured out the missing dash emblem secret yet.
I have a St Louis GTX without the emblem, pretty original unaltered car. Bought the car from a man that owned it since 1974 and it was not there.
***Update: 10/1970 build date.

Someone once ran a 70 Hemi GTX registry I thought and they asked me whether my car had the Plymouth emblem on the hood and the GTX on the dash. My car has both. I thought the guys name was Mike Adams but I can't remember names worth squat. Had a red automatic with tan interior IIRC.

..... It will be getting the white side stripes and it had exhaust tip brackets so it's getting some nos tips. It also had a six way seat adjuster that I am putting back in. Those are the two things that are not on the tag but were with the car when I got it so they are going back on. I believe they were both on the car from day one. "skinny" font LA & bent "funny" also another California Y14 car w/NO STRIPES must be something in the water out there? 6-way wasn't on '69-'70 b-body tags, no extra holes or brackets required tips should've been there, but I don't have any LA U-code GTX tag info with N95 & N42? AWESOME GTX "biggE"!!

Thanks Dan. I was able to take it out to a few local Cars and Coffee before the weather changed. It runs and drives really nice. Real nice one of my favorite colors So is that one of those rare XTG emblem cars? RR is real nice too, still waiting for my turn for one of those. So now you have the RR you gonna part with the GTX? *Hint *Hint
