i think i caught a mistake i made in the above post. i said this car had the "deluxe" interior. it doesn't - or at least the door panels are not the deluxe versions for 1969. those door panels had woodgrain and map pockets. so this car either had the deluxe interior which included the console and the headrests and the door panels were changed. OR - the car was ordered with the standard interior and the console and headrest "options" were added. it may also be noted that this car does not have the "wood" "rally steering wheel." that also was an option in 69. as a final point, this car with a 340 should have had the two exhaust tips cut-out rear lower valance panel. the "California" cars had turn-down exhaust instead of the square exhaust tips we are all used to seeing. California had a "noise regulation" for vehicles and apparently, old mopars were too loud with the square exhaust tips. so this may have been a California car originally which would explain the rear valance.
