Challenger grille question

[Culvers]

Is there a difference between a normal R/T grille and a R/T SE grille?

[Tropicalcats]

No difference

[Carlwalski]

No difference in the grille but didn't the SE have an extra chrome trim piece?
Or, was that on the rear, or not at all? Never the less the grille was the same.

PAint operation on the 70 and 71. Dark argent/light argent versus dark argent and satin black I think...


As always, correct me if I am mistaken.

I think the grill is the same but the SE is supposed to have a chrome trim strip on the lower valence.  Smiling at you!!

  The R/T grille is the same as the R/T-S/E grille.  The molding on the front valance is part of the molding package which was included in the S/E package.  The molding package was available separately.  It was ordered on my 6 pack R/T.  This makes my R/T look like an R/T-S/E with the exception of the rear window. 

In 1971 all grilles were molded from a black plastic.  The non-R/T grilles were painted with a textured argent silver.  The R/T grilles were left unpainted "naked" black plastic.

   My R/T was also ordered with the SE trim package, chrome front valance molding, rear of hood and fenders, top of door (arm burners  ) rear trim panel and wide rocker moldings.
