..My parents were the original owners and sold it when I started driving in 1987..the car was never re-titled and sat for about 25 years. I have the ORIGINAL window stickers, the bill of sale from Lindgren Chrysler Plymouth in Lancaster, PA, my Dad's signatures, etc. It's a RM23 Lynch Road 383 /335, ivy green, air grabber, 4 speed manual, 3.23 HD torsion bars, light package, sure grip rear, springs, etc.. All original, numbers matching, down to the shifter handle. I have the original wheels, which were 14 inch chrome road wheels. It has 69,000 miles..I have the build sheet, the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle installment contract and DMV papers. I have all the original envelopes and warranty papers that were in the glove box when new. My Mom kept EVERYTHING, luckily.

She's a little worn for wear, and I am in the market for a reputable restoration facility. I am not cost conscious. My Dad passed away two weeks ago, and saw pictures of it but I was not able to get it transported before he passed. It is all there, just needs a complete resto. I want it to be the way it was when he bought it.



I am located in mid Maryland, but I am willing to transport the car anywhere in the country. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I currently have a car in "semi" restoration process at Hodge Restorations.

There are MANY high end cars in there.

Google "Mopar Restoration" - check it out.

They do OUTSTANDING WORK. Check out their website and restoration picture threads. I have seen some of their restorations first hand and they are top notch. They do all makes and models but specialize in Mopars. They offer a variety of restoration options from driver quality to full-on concours rotisserie restos.

Keep in mind, you get what you pay for. They are not cheap but they are award winning.
