1971 Dodge Dart Canadian Special 340. LL23H1R263395

The REM trunk mat definitely is for 1973 & newer as cut outs for bumper with shock absorbers.
New mat arrived today! Almost perfect except around the bumper jack holddown.
 
Working feverishly to finish my 72 Canadian Special 340 for MCACN in 2 weeks in Chicago but I just received my restored wiper motor for the 71 today.

Our member Joel arrived at MCACN (Muscle Car And Corvette Nationals) with his 340 Special today and is setting up and going to have a great bucket list event and represent us A-Body lovers! SCATPACKER (Kevin) and Cliff Guinand also 340 Special owners flew down from Canada to help him and enjoy the show and Cliff writes for some car magazines so there will likely be a story about the car and event. Have a great time guys.

Trying to get small parts added! Purchased parts for both cars over 6 years ago and now trying to find them in the garage and storage shelves! Made some progress!

I somehow missed your posts in November (I got shot in the knee), but I'm very happy for your success at MCACN! Congratulations! I've been following for awhile and enjoy your posts.
 
My friend Jerry came over to help in the garage & i decided to get the NOS grille from the rafters! Brackets are soaking in Evaporust, then painted black. Then I can install headlight doors.
