Yes, believe it is.

More pics.







Couldnt tell if trunk pan was ever replaced?

Looks like engine compartment repainted & new trunk floor, Does not look like a California car since it has no California emmisions. LEON.

100% LOVE IT and it has a great color combo.  I've been out of the closet as a HUGE 1970 Charger FAN and your car is awesome.  Forget about those mushy brakes, just wash it and get the A/C working - its HOT out there brother.  Let's cruise!

I found some old reciepts from arizona in the trunk as well.

As far as I know, all 1970 Chargers sold in California have the N95 option on Fender tag. The N95 is ECS (evaporative control system) or California emmisions. This consist of a special gas tank that has 4 seperate little tanks ontop of the tank & then runs 4 lines into a special tube mounted in right side upper trunk. Also consist of a special carb with extra breather tube on top of carb that connects to a special 3 nipple breather mounted on pass side valve cover. I did not see any of this on your car. Did the Trunk rust out for it to get replaced? Don't get me wrong, no insult intended, it's a nice car. I love 70 R/T's. LEON.

none taken i appreciate the insight, it helps. i will confirm these details. i might have assumed where his father-in-law lived based on what i took away from my conversation with the seller.

Ha ha I love the Gatorade bottle in the engine compartment-being used as an overflow bottle, I presume?  Lol the other day at the body shop I found a COKE CAN in the heat/air box under the dash!  Love your car though, what a solid start.  Asides from the reliability issues you could drive that thing as a survivor and it would be totally cool!

Yeah some of us are starting with much much less; that car has about the same problems as a 10 year old car has now, and it's 42 years old.  Knock the dust off of it, get the carb fixed, swap the brakes and please, for the love of God, drive the wheels off of that (at least for a while).  What a nice find!

[vick79]

A few of my friends just found out I got this thing last night at a party... had a frenzy of offers to come help work on it Im aiming to have it "ready" and drivable by CPW Fall Fling here in SoCal. It'll be my first mopar event with a car.

If there was ever a lesson about being patient and waiting for the right car along, you just taught the 300 level course. Wow. Congrats!

I was noting how great the condition is also.  Was this car garaged?  I mean look at the interior and the bottom of the car for Pete's sake...

Congrat's on the Charger pick-up   It's amazing what is still local.  I've heard an old saying that whatever you want is in a 50 mile radius of where you live!!  I'm not 100% sure of that, but it seems to have worked for you.  Have fun with the car

No clue if it was garaged. It spent a fair bit of time sitting in his back driveway under a cover. The upper interior door panels are cracking and looks like they PO tried to use a vinyl repair kit to fix his aging armrests in the driver side. The seats front,rear are in good shape, floormats and carpet in great shape.

Spent the afternoon trying to find the buildsheet, didnt find it. at least i have the original tag (safely kept inside my house), after i found out people like to steal  these things!

  Very nice.
