This looks like 156008, it was at Mopars at the Strip in April.  I think it was the only non-Hemi in the main tent.

Beautiful car; started out as a wreck in a field.

Here's the body tag and the "before" picture that was by the car. Homerr, It's not in your new database if you want to have the honors.  That'll make it 231.

I would take this over the green Daytona in the other thread any day

c500 looks good but I like wings and nose cones on mine.

Best colour F8 Metallic green with a green interior!

Looks almost identical to my Moparmates Green/green C500 here in the UK.
Love the Coronet style rocker moldings, (I think my mate needs one for his C500 too)
He has upgraded to 1971 disc brakes so 15-inch steelies for him.
When he wins the lottery he wants 15-inch Kelseys,,, COOLIO!!! :2thumbs:

What's with the Funky 67 air cleaner???

Sure its gonna get snapped up at that price! :dance:

I smell a new FT???

OOPS, binned a few of those Noise reduction air cleaners...
I always thought they were up to 67 and Old school!
Obviously some Folks wanted the looks of the C500 and the luxury of a GTX!!!

Noise reduction, how mad is that on an R/T car??? :scratchchin:

mandatory in some states like CA.  Also I've been in a '69 R/T that was soooooo quiet it's still one of the cars I'd most like to take on a road trip.  It was a factory undercoated car as well. 

noise is good.  noise ALL THE DAMN TIME gets old.

This is why I am undercoating my 500

He probably has that much into it.  I talked to him last spring; he regretted not restoring a Hemi car. He said because of the cost and time involved in locating, then getting all the power options properly restored and functional, it would have cost less to restore a plain Jane Hemi car. It was his first Mopar resto, but the judges were very impressed by the workmanship and detail.

I guess one can get upside down with anything.

As long as all you Aero Experts are here, I'd like to toss a question out.  The trunklid cap on this car has a lip about 3/4 of an inch long running perpendicular to the flat of the trunk lid.  I've never seen this before,  but then again I haven't seen that many C500s and Daytonas with the trunk open.  Was this used for a while, a TSB to cure leakage, or something else?  :scratchchin:  Has anyone else seen this before?
