We have 2 sets of rear panels, one without ashtray cutouts, one with. Were the ashtrays 71 only, or were they used on 70 S/E cars ? :rebelflag"
I think it was an SE thing, right?
On the 1970 Challengers, the side rear ash trays(and carpeted lower door panes/ reflector) were part of the leather and cloth interior options. Im thinking here that if the panel was meant for an SE interior it will have areas in the plastic on back side indicated for an SE interior to be cut out for the ash trays. I'm pretty sure I've seen them in '71 interiors, but am not sure here. The rear of the '71 console did have an ash tray mounted in it. In my SE interior I have the carpeted lower door panels w/ door reflectors and side rear ash trays. Thanks, Al
I restored four 1970 Challenger R/T's in the last year or so....All of them had factory rear ashtrays.... :dunno: None of them were SE's HOWEVER two had leather interior, one had houndstooth and the other was a convertible ?
I don't recall if they were on the build sheets, but all the cars had their original interior panels so I was just going by that.
I have had two Gran Coupes, and both had the ashtray in the rear panels.

Did the 2 leather and or cloth insert cars have carpet on bottom of door panels?
I think the upgraded interior drove the ash tray.
What interior was in the Conv?
Did literature ir buyer guide say conv got standard rear ash tray? They did in A-body conv. I think B-body too.

YES...both the leather and cloth interior cars have the carpet at the bottom of the doors, again NON-SE cars.
The convertible has the standard vinyl seats.
MY MISTAKE.... :pullinghair:
Just checked the original convertible rear panels and they DO NOT have factory ashtrays.... :sorry:

Ok.
The premium seats/interior gave you the rear ash trays.
Didn't all 70 S/E's come std with leather or cloth premium seats?
