Here I thought it was untouched. I wonder if there's anyway of finding previous owner from a old license plate I have he left with the car

I asked my brother and found out he change the gauges, the original dash pad was cracked up so he changed the gauges and pad. Located the original, thanks for spotting that. But as far as the carpet and mirrors are you sure there not original.
The car is actually a California car, there's actually a sad story with it so there's a reason it's been parked so long

Is the original dash tag still with the car? If it was built in LA most of those cars did not end up with a build sheet

Not if that was a California plate.

What a busy summer, Farming is slowing down and I'm starting to have time to look at my car again,
  I have the original dash and gauges back in the car, the dash is cracked up fairly bad though.
I have added some pictures of the carb numbers I just want to confirm it's the right carb for the 383 1970 383 motor there was just the numbers if it comes with a tag it was missing
Also I included the California plate from the previous owner, so if you read this Pat get ahold of me
Thanks Bruce

is this car BS23N0E128xxx?  (it's the only white 383 4-speed 'cuda I have in my data with CA emissions, sorry no fender tag info  :(  )

the correct carburetor for a '70 383HP w/CA emissions (N95) is a HOLLEY #4217 (the 49-state carburetor is #4367)

it is a common swap to the Carter as the balance tube seals on the OE HOLLEY tend to leak  :angry:

I think The actual colour of the car is BL1 sand pebble beige from looking at pictures it's not white enough to be alpine white EW1
  I have Rob from Prairie Fire restoration coming out to help me carefully take the interior apart to find the build sheet, but from what I understand the chances are slim being a California car
  Where would a person round up the right Numbered Holley carb for this car and the correct driver and passenger mirrors, not interested in reproduction
I included the actually dash tag and a picture of the carpet that I believe is original but have not yet peeled it back to find the tag to confirm, as pointed out in a previous message

That carpet is not original in my opinion :alan2cents:

 I'll let you know when I get it peeled back and there was a fellow wanting to see the brakes I'll post pictures of that also

Well I look in the bucket seat rear panels and pulled the rear seat out and there's no build sheet, so next is the dash.
There was a tag on the bottom seat 
Here are some pictures of what I found.
It was mentioned earlier that may not be original carpet or even the right colour replacement carpet in it. Anyway of telling from the pictures, I really don't want to rip it out looking for a tag and if I did I would want to put the right colour back
Thanks

Here is the gauges and dash for it but no build sheet.
