One owner 70 Challenger G code on Hagerty Marketplace

[JH27N0B]

I always enjoy seeing a flat hood E body seeing how few seem to be around now.  This is an interesting car being one owner and sales paperwork, but some obvious flaws in the resto like the vinyl top and rear seat.  What is the story on the slapstick shifter, it seems to stick up higher than normal?
