I used to own RM23V0A166154, bought it in SoCal in 1988 and sold it to Dave Kanofsky in 1997.  He Sold it to Dave Schultz in 2002.  Dave had a Rotisserie resto done at HemiTyme, and sold it a few years later.  Just wondering if it has surfaced since.  It is a 440+6 4Speed Black buckets no console that was originally Vitamin C but painted Petty Blue in 1971, and it was repainted Petty Blue when Restored in the early 90s.  It was also a California CAP car with the Emission canister in the trunk.  I'd just like to see current pics of it.

i know Dave,but i have not seen the car in person. it may be a different bird ?

He sold my old car and finished the B5 car, as he found the B5 car after the resto on my old car was already in progress.

Hey, I know that car!

It seems to be in a bunch of my wedding photos, not to mention a few from when each of my sons were born and came home from the hospital :-)

Another give away is that the underside of the trunklid is signed by the late Ray Nichels, Ray Evernham, and Sterling Marlin...

It was a blue plate California car "827 BUP", the plates went with the car when I sold it on Friday, December 13, 2002...that was a tough day, although I was quickly consoled when I bought my Daytona the next day!

It's part of the N95 ECS (emission control system) required on new 1970 model cars registered in California.

How badly rusted out was the trunk pan?   Noticed it's missing the drain holes.   :shruggy:
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Here's an original pan.

My recollection is surface scale.  I didn't know of any pinholes, and certainly no significant rust through.

It's an Evap cannister for the California Emission package. The trunk floor did not need to be replaced IMHO. It could have been saved pretty easily. The car is not supposed to have the chrome exhaust tips either it came with turndowns.

I wrote the current seller and chided them for calling it a Petty Blue car when it was orange originally.  They sent me back telling me that it had been that way since delivery.  I wrote them back and said yes, I know, but as an owner of a REAL 999 car I try to keep track of them and that it may lead to confusion as written.  Nice that they changed it to reflect that!
