Note the medallions; Dart - http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/colorAndTrim/1971/71_Dart0002.jpg Scamp - http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/colorAndTrim/1971/71_Valiant_Duster0009.jpg

Do you see springs & foam or just foam? It's springs then foam. Well, mouse nest, springs then foam! Can you tell by the tracks what they may have been in? The pattern looks a bit different than the dart picture reference. www.Musclemagnet.com 1969 Cuda 383 Q5 1969 Cuda 340 4-spd Notch 1969 Cuda 383 4-spd Notch 1969 GTS Black on White 340 4-spd 1971 Cuda 383 V2, X9 Billboards, White Top!

Quote: pattern looks a bit different than the dart picture reference. They have been recovered, so it could be older aftermarket or custom work.
