Title: cowl color on 70 challenger/cuda
Post by: Challenger in NC on August 30, 2021, 11:46:38 AM
Which is correct, body color or blackout? From the drawing, it appears that cowl and firewall are painted body color.

Basically, but not entirely - what month was it built? The cowl blackout was done away with late, sometime around April - May of 1970 IIRC.

:iagree: My 1970 FC7 Challenger with a 508 SPD did not have the cowl blackout.
