Spring loaded hood wedge in a '72?

[jmartin99]

Is a '72 Challenger Rallye supposed to have spring loaded hood wedges?

Thanks!

I believe they all have them, except for maybe the T/A Challenger since that hood is fiberglass.

Hey Alan,
I have a used one I can send you. (it is from a T/A, they used them also)

Darn I was afraid you or someone would post that just after I made that remark.   Barry, I am not begging for nothing.   If you will let me send you some money for it, I will take it.  And I mean more then just shipping.  Use the money for your H.R.S.   

I was planning on buying a new one, but I love original stuff.   Also, if you pull 36 wheel trim screws out of that magic bucket of yours, I will buy them to. I wanna install my chrome around my fender wells


Jmartin99,  I am sorry for stepping on your post

[Alaskan_TA]

No worries Al, it is about TIME I sent you something. 

I already have your address, just consider it a Christmas present.

Thanks guys!  I looked when I got home and found the mounting holes in the fenders.  I was not sure where they went but found a couple of pics on this AWESOME website and knew where to look for holes when I got home.

I do have another question though, Are there supposed to be rubber bumpers where the hood and fenders meet somewhere near the front of the car?  I do not see a place to mount them.  Do they have a rubber tab on the bottom that goes thru a hole or are they held on with a screw?

Thanks!

It looks like it is screwed on from here. I'll have a better look later today.


EDIT:  Yes, that front bumper screws on. Mine isn't screwed in all the way. You have to adjust the height of the bumper for your needs. Also, mine is a 70, so your front header panel looks different, I'm sure, but the mumper location should be the same.

Just to clarify......

The fenders in these photos are for 1970 models, 1972 fenders are a bit different I am sure. 

Hole in driver side fender for front wedge;
