The wheels are kinda small aren't they?

Cool car, can't wait to see more progress photos.

super cool car. I think the overhead console is pretty rare. any paper work? owner history?

I assume you are referring to the picture of the headliner showing the dome light? I looked at it and could not tell if that is a console or the picture streeked and blurred.

If it IS a console it brings up some questions for me. I sold Dodge E bodies new and am familiar with them but not so familiar with the Plymouth line.

That console in the Dodge E body was ONLY available in the "formal roof" SE package which is sales code A78. I THOUGHT that in the Plymouth line that the same basic equipment (ceiling console) came standard in the Grand Coupe. In the info I have available at hand shows no option package that would include this console for a Plymouth E body.

Now, if my above statement is true then the V.I.N. of a Grand Coupe should begin BP not BS or should have some type of option package on the fender tag to indicate the console as part of that package.

So, my question is, is the fender tag wrong, is the picture blurry just APPEARING to be a console, or was there some other way I am not aware of to get the console and if so, why is ther no indication of it on the fender tag?

On non Gran Coupes Plymouth E-bodies, if you ordered the leather interior you could get the roof consolette as part of the interior package.
