I'd leave it! Do I see where the Sunderland Emblem was originally on the trunk lid?

Yes Marlin, you can see where the Sunderland emblem was. Here are a few more pics of the car. He did tell me about the radio, but the gentleman is 66 yrs old and his memory is a little clouded. He has another dash pad, and the speakers in the dash are aftermarket. The aftermarket radio has org 70 knobs on it and he thinks he still has the org radio, I will have to ask him about the antenna. The tach he told me he bought in 1968 for his Z/28.

When you see the build sheet behind one of the door panels it will confirm if the stripes where an added option in box 44 under "ST" it will have the letter "B" for black stripes.

The Malibu door emblems are also on my Atlanta 454 built LS6 car, very common for Atlanta 454 cars.

Love that Black River Cloth bench seat, reminds me of my first SS396 70 i had from 1984-1997.

Looks like those hood & deck stripes were applied @ the factory to me,based on what's been shown.
Which means they were charged extra being on a non flapper hood.RPO D-88.Is it an early or later designed hood?

Also on the idea of it being ordered w/o a radio,based on the later added fender mast.
For 1970,when no Radio was ordered,and Tinted glass wasn't either,the clear windshield will not have an internal antenna lead attached to it.
When no Radio was ordered,but Tinted glass was,the tinted windshield will have an internal antenna lead attached to it.

When a Radio was ordered,but Tinted glass wasn't,the clear windshield will have the internal antenna attached to it.
When a Radio was ordered and Tinted glass was too,the Tinted windshield will have the internal antenna attached to it.

Send the car to us and we will have her all cleaned and ready for MCACN! (shameless plug)

Can you provide a photo of the underside of the hood? Interested if it has the early or late style. Same goes for the drivers side front fender showing the location and style of windshield washer bottle.

Rick, It sounds like you are offering your services for free just to get your hands on this baby. How do I tell if it is an early or late hood? The car is not at my location as yet, but I will get further pics.

There is a difference between the side insulation areas as well. The early design has a larger flange then the 2nd design.

Jeff, close but not exactly.
