Hmm... E-town Dodge... and also San Antonio. I don't think that Dodge dealership exists anymore.

Elizabethtown is in Kentucky. It is near Ft Knox, which was the home of US Army "Armor" - tanks. I suspect this vehicle was owned by someone in the US Army. There is another dealer tag, from San Antonio - it is home to Ft. Sam Houston, which is also an Army post. And this car is now in Germany, yes? Was it brought to Germany by a US serviceman and then sold there?

Interesting history. The car is beautiful and well preserved. I think a set of white wall tires would look good on it. As would the Mopar rally wheels. Just my opinion. :)

The San Antonio dealer tag is believed to be attached by the original dealer who sold the car in ´73.
The E-Town Frame was in my inventory before i bought this car. Has nothing to do with its history.

Do the headlight doors work?

You did the same thing I did. Removed the bulky, unattractive chrome & rubber bumper guards. Those were federally mandated by law in 1973. A lot of otherwise nice looking cars were made ugly as a result of that rule.
