This also has factory front and rear sway bars, disc brakes and a vinyl top I’m assuming white. Also the remnants of the tape stripes are still on the inside of the door around the handle, they were white. Which would make this car a 1972 EV2 (Hemi Orange) 340 Auto, with a white interior, white tape stripes and a white vinyl top. Also all of the options listed above. Think it could be a rare one?
