 :unbelievable: Yes, that is a strange SE for sure. I always thought they should have done billboards on Challengers...now I'm not so sure. :thinking: It would be nice to see the fender tag.

I would like to see how he mounted the roof console if he didn't use the SE cardboard headliner? If he did use the cardboard headliner and sail panels how is it finished around the back glass?:thinking:

First of all.......I don't think it is an SE..........second.......the billboards look ok, but look at it for a while and they look better.....Still a reminder of Cudas......Lillington is a little over an hour from me.  Haven't ever visited their store, but it may be a good trip to take.

Looks a lot like my car in this regard.... The vinyl roof is stripped along with the SE rear window plug and interior moldings. Still the chrome external moldings are in place, look at the top of doors...

The same with the chrome molding on the top of the front fenders...

:haha: You're right.... As time passes by, the more i think that the exterior designers knew exactly what they were doing.

The Challenger has the hip line, so the mid body stripe or non at all was pretty enough. Cuda was more curved on the sides, so the billboard is a prettier choice imho....

All that belt line trim on the doors and hood etc...was available as an extra cost option on any model :alan2cents: ...at least it was in 1971, because I've restored a couple of RT's that had it. :dunno:

Did I miss the part where they showed the VIN ? How do we know it's an RT/SE ? or even an RT for that matter ? :huh:

maybe at some point back window as broken so they removed the plug and put a regular window in?.....who knows on a 50 year old car...

my old 1970 RT/SE had been un SE'd except for rear window and belt moldings........no overhead console...no vinyl top....

Installing bill boards on a challenger would be a nightmare I would think. That big body line would make it challenging

Maybe I was being a little harsh...  Get rid of the billboards, mix up some more red and spray the shaker and mirrors and it would be an ok car but not for $65K nice thats for sure.

This car has a fender tag.  This dealer chose not to show it.  There always is a reason for showing a Mopar in this manner.  There was a nice N96 orange 340 1970 Challenger on CL the other day very nice car for around $32,000.  It sold by lunchtime.
