Barry, here is the complete VIN JH23H0E108143, any more info on this car would be awesome, especially since I don't have a broadcast sheet. Old photos, what wheels it had and whether or not it had a tuff wheel new, the specifics on the accident it was in if known. What is really funny is I grew up in Windsor California and that Dodge dealership when I lived there was changed to Zumalt-Magrini Chrysler Plymouth. Thanks for the info that is really awesome. :2thumbs: :2thumbs:

Well, it deffinately did not have a tuff whel when new since they only came from the factory on A and B bodies.

Since you mentioned Zumwalt;

I have a lot of the records from Zumwalt CP, but none for Chiaroni Dodge.  :walkaway:

Best of luck with your search!

It was so sad when they closed that dealership. I wanted to buy it and turn it into a Mopar restoration shop with finished cars on the show room, and the parts department full of performance and restoration parts, and in the extra storage (that dealership was on a TON of property) I wanted to put in a museum. BUt I moved to Redding and being the youngin that I am, I didn't and still don't have that kind of money.

That's definitely the car I saw posted on eBay.  The front end definitely needs it's fair share of work, but it is definitely repairable, so that's a plus.  I wish I could track down the photos I had of an FM-3 T/A that took a 130+mph front impact collision with a tree.  That poor car definitely didn't fair as well as yours has.  It'll be cool to watch this entire restoration project as it begins taking shape into one very cool car again. :2thumbs: (hopefully by that time I'll have my '73 done by then and be out of college. ::))

Thanks for the pics. It looks like it's going to be a great car again. Please keep us posted on the progress. It doesn't look like it will take to much to get it going again. Good luck on getting the oem drivetrain, that would be so cool if you can score it.

I thought I should include some pictures of the hood to give people an idea of the accident it was involved in.

Looks like a cool car... though I was half expecting the plates to read OA5599

I look forward to seeing her completed.

Very cool!  Reminds me of the Clowns car but in a little better situation...  Did the car come with a stripe?  This car is going to be sweet when its done!
