I’ve owned this car for five years. It’s my third Mopar.
I had a Slant 6 powered 63 Valiant convertible in college in the late 80s.
I had a 383 powered 70 Fury III convertible in the mid-90s.
To quote Al Pacino, "Every time I try to get out, they keep pulling me back in!"

No build sheet, but no rust either

Trunk before with slight surface rust. Note the factory spackle paint. Chrysler started painting trunks body color later in the model year.

I need the rear-most section of the center console. Looks like this. Let me know if you have one for sale.
