Junkyard Find: 1976 Chrysler Cordoba

We've seen this '78 (which provided me with a beautiful Corinthian Leather garage couch), this '79, and this '80 prior to today, and now we've got a genuine, Ricardo-approved 1976 Cordoba.

The rainy winters in coastal California tend to keep the metal beneath vinyl tops moist, and cheap weatherstripping (i.e., just about all the weatherstripping used by Detroit during the Malaise Era) tends to let water into the trunk. So, on cars like this you'll see pristine quarter-panels and nasty roofs.
