If sold new in March 69 it is fairly early. I would like to know the build week and plant it came from.

Also, please tell me how the cables are attached to each other under the hood at the upper ram air pan. Are they attached using a small block or a stamped piece of metal/bolt/washer/nut? I would love to see a picture if the latter. This was apparently used for a very short time at the Baltimore plant at least. Mine has this setup.

Great find!

Awesome. In the original/new owner picture, it looks like a front chin spoiler there?

Is there a close up by anychance, or just a shadow.
Thank you.

Do you really think it's numbers matching all original?"

It is an air baffle that is original to many/all of these cars. My Judge has its original. There is a repoduction of it, but I am not sure that it uses the exact original material. The original material is the same as the material used to make the original filler between the radiator and the nose.
