Holey mackerel
Pictures of my 69 A56 car. 340 4 speed. I bought a front clip and had it truck shipped from Missouri. Drilled out a few hundred spot welds and dropped out the rusty front clip from mine. Any black you see is POR 15 and that's my $10 home-made rotisserie. Made good progress then got side-tracked with other cars so it will be a retirement project but I'll never sell it, can't quit now.
I may have 1 or 2 69 cuda quarter skins if you're interested. Since yours is a vert it may not make good sense to get full quarters. Otherwise, put AMD on your speed dial.
