Here is a picture of my 71 inner fender before I repainted the engine compartment. The double washer backside on yours isn't Mopar like.

Well, it surely is a pretty color.

Ten coats, holy cow.

Pretty sure dual sport mirrors were in option, even for the TA. G36 is the code on the fender tag.

I did my undercoating on the quarters while they were off the car. I believe it was for sound deadening purposes. Replicated fairly closely, at least around the marker openings, I might have done more than the factory did, but I figured it couldn't hurt.

Can see a bit of the original undercoating in my 71 BHG.

she does look like trouble

As a youngster, I put in a clutch disc backwards, oops.

I have done something similar except I didn't tighten the pressure plate bolts all the way, just enough to keep the disc in place but still allow the disc to move around a bit. After the tranny was in, I would rotate the engine to tighten the pressure plate bolts.

A guy restoring a Superbird was looking for a pair of date stamped straps like above. I had a couple of sets in a junk bolt bucket. Unbelievably I had the exact date he was looking for. I only asked 15 bucks for them, being nice. They guy doubled the money, nice guy!

Thank you Cuda Joe for the pictures. Believe it or not, I was going through my shelf of parts to put my car completely back together and found the shield. Crazy

I am not an expert, but seems like a score to me.

Pics please!

I feel your pain! It is amazing what gets tossed on these old cars.

My 71 is missing this shield. Any chance you could take some measurements of the piece as it looks pretty straightforward to make one. You could take a couple of pictures of it with a ruler next to it and I can figure out all the other measurements based on the pictures. Thanks.
