Cuda rolled fender lip

[xx88man]

I know some Challengers had rolled fenders. Can somebody tell me if this rolled fender lip is normal for a '70 Cuda 340?

[HEMICUDA]

Looks like an NOS fender?  Many of the first run NOS fenders were made with rolled lips.

  many of the NOS parts were a one size fits all

AFAIK rolled fenders were only factory "correct" on hemi'cudas although there are some others that have them

[Cudino]

Would NOS fenders have the holes pre-drilled for wheel opening moldings?  I really don't know, just asking.

No, the NOS fenders when new would not have wheel lip moulding screw holes - most wheel lip screws were of the self-drilling type with a waxy sealant in an attempt to provide rust protection to the bare metal created

No it's not normal to find that on a 340 Cuda.
The world is still on the fence as to whether or not AAR's had rolled fenders, but only Hemicudas got them....or supposed to have got them.

Dan, is your pic the right screw for 70 or this?  Also, I thought the rolled lip also was related to the 15" wheel size.

yours looks factory.

Here is one I look at every other day.  And drool....

the pic I posted was just a wheel lip screw example, I don't know what the "correct" '70 screw is

the "rolled" lip E-body fenders were created for the 15x7.0" wheel & F60-15 POLYGLAS GT tire combination (STANDARD HEMI E-body combination), it was not necessary with the 15x7.0" wheel & E60-15 tire

the "TRANS AM" cars were originally proposed with 15x8.0" wheels & H60-15 tires all around, modified to 15x7.0" wheels & G60-15 tires, then finally to E60-15 Front & G60-15 Rear that the cars ended up with

there would've been a a larger flared or radiused front fender required for a H60 or G60-15 front tire - the second tag was probably "TRANS AM FENDER" before the bean counters & SCCA unit requirements resulted in the BIG tire & wheel package getting the axe

I have the original fenders for my AAR, the fenders were rolled.

[Jim AAR]

My AAR has the original fenders and the Lips are NOT Rolled.

The NOS fenders I bought for my Challenger from the dealer back in the early 80's were marked as 1971 T/A fenders that do have the rolled center area of the lip, and no, the wheel lip molding screw holes were not there.

I have the original fenders for my AAR, the fenders were rolled.

My AAR has the original fenders and the Lips are NOT Rolled.

....and so it begins....

[Shoooter]

is there a number stamp on the fender Darcy?
