Pics of 69-73 C bodies

Okay, here is mine. As you can see it's pretty straight body-wise with only a little surface rust. The interior is pretty good also except for the carpets which are badly water damaged, and the head lining. The dash pad is also missing.

A couple more... Ignore that gas line - it's temporary to make sure the original line wasn't blocked and causing the idle issue.

Any info of the tag numbers would be appreciated, Cheers

I like the color combo. I am not well versed in 1967-1968 Chryslers, but @Imperialist67 is and hopefully he can confirm/improve on what I got below using this decoder -- I am most dubious about the color info, as highlighted in red below:

1967-1968 Mopar Fender Tag Decoder, Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth

I found it hard to align characters, which may explain why the white paint is not showing up.

Cool, thanks. I saved the link too.
I was thinking about the burgundy stripe thing - that wouldn't refer to the stripe in the seat would it? If not I cant see any sign of anything but white paint.

Was your car repainted at some point?

 

[Pax2001]

I cannot see any obvious signs of a repaint, no overspray anywhere and the insides of both the trunk and engine bay look legit.

Yeah, and I hate you for it!

I LOVE that car, before the added console.

1970 Polara headlight.

I took this picture of Poppy upon bringing her back from her 2021 physical (and having fixed her first-ever oil leak under my ownership) last Friday evening, June 18.

Very nice color! Was that an original color back then?

It was yes, and I hear it is pretty rare. I only know of 3 other fuselage Furys in this color, which is by the way FK3 Burnt Orange. This car now resides in our collection by the way......
