Metal Penstar emblem question?
« on: January 12, 2007 - 12:23:18 PM »
I have been going through some of my emblems and ran across this penstar emblem. I'm not sure what it's off of. It could be a hood emblem but I really don't know. If anyone knows let me know. Here is the part number on the back and pictures of both sides. Part# 2449932. It has a guide stud on back and a stud for a nut to hold it in place.

it came on both the 70&71 Challenger flat hood.  The original shaker hood on my 70 Challenger also had it.

The part number shows it is the emblem around 1 inch in height.  The door panel emblem is a smaller version of this emblem.

I have seen this on the outer sail panel of a 69 B body with a vinyl top. I just can't remember if it attached by peg or screw.

  It measures about 2 inches if you measure corner to corner.
