Title: 1973 Challenger L31 - fender hole locations
Post by: 6bblgt on June 11, 2021, 01:22:08 AM
does anyone have the hole pattern & dimensions for the fender turn signal indicators for a '73 Challenger?    :help:    @Burdar (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/burdar_173)

Sorry, I do not.  That was one of the things I messed up on my car.  I had a 72 fender that I was going to use until I decided to use Goodmark fenders.  The body shop used that 72 fender to drill the fender mount turn signal holes.   :'(

We had to use an air grinder to open up one hole to 73 size AFTER the car was painted.  The other hole was too large since 73 uses a screw to attach the turn signals instead of a stud/nut.  Since I couldn't use a screw I bought two philips head machine screws and used a nut to attach them.  They look correct from up top but they aren't attached correctly underneith.

Are the hole locations different from a 1970 challenger?

Yes.  73 and 74 have one very large hole and one small hole for the attaching screw.

I can take some dimensions and measurements tomorrow from my 74 if that helps you.
