Rear door panel bracket
« on: June 11, 2013 - 01:22:23 AM »
Hey guys, I have a question which may be hard for some to answer, but i'm hoping at least 1 person has their interior out right now to help me?? :naughty:
I want to add this bracket for the rear door panel to my early build 70 Challenger( i understand early cars did not come with this piece).
I just need to know the location and dimesions (L & R) if someone would be so kind? Thanks :cheers:

I just went out and looked at my '70 Cuda.  Didn't see the bracket.  Sorry.  :(
1970 Plymouth 'Cuda.  Matching numbers 440 U Code, 4 speed pistol grip, Rallye dash, AM 8 Track, Shaker hood, 15 inch rallye wheels, Dana 60 4.10, Super Track Pak.  One of 134 - 440 "U" coupes codes built in 1970 and one of 100 - 440 Super Track Paks built in 1970.

"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.

This is interesting you posted about this.
Mine is an early build challenger (September 1969) and mine didn't have this bracket.
I wasn't aware later builds had them but I felt something was needed there so I made my own.



And you can see the seen attachment just in front of the rear quarter window opening.

Burnouts are cool but Traction is the Action
