Are any of these codes for fog lights?  The car still has the fog lights on it and I assume they are original to the car.

Does anyone have any idea how many cudas were built with these options in FE5?

Is the M25 - "Body Sill Moldings" mean that the car came with rockers.  The guy I bought the car from said that he remembered plastic moldings on the rockers when he was young and his dad was driving the car.  I know this means that at one time the Cuda had fish gill rocker moldings, but is this what the M25 code means?

Also, the cuda didn't have the top of door trim.  Is there a code that would have meant that it came with this molding as well?  Or, could it have been standard equipment on cuda models?  The car does not have this molding, but it had been repainted one time in its life, so they could have filled the clip holes in the door tops.

As far as I know all 70 'Cuda's came with the one year only rocker trim. I dont know what molding it is but like road lamps it should have been standard.

M31 is the code you are reffering to as the Body Belt mouldings, which is the chrome on top of the door top edge.  Your car is not coded for it and it was not standard issue on a 'Cuda.... :grinno: sorry and your M25 is the gilled rocker mouldings :2thumbs: like Brett said.

If you have not done so yet, can you please check inside both front seat backs for additional broadcast sheets & let me know if you find any for other cars?

I can check behind the passenger side.  I already found one original behind the Driver's side.  I have not checked the back seat yet either.
