brace over grille
« on: May 15, 2010 - 01:34:27 PM »
I have a 70 challenger and was told this brace does not belong on my car. If not, what does it belong on?

Did you check the rest of the numbers?  I have put 70 grills in 71s before too. What do your tail lights look like?

Definately a '70 by the numbers. It appears to have had some front end damage at some point by looking around the radiator support.

1971 passenger side fender too.

Got a photo showing the other one at the front?

No pic of the other fender yet but I was told the passenger fender and hood were from a 71.  The pass fender has the cutouts and the driver's side does not. The hood underbrace has the crumple zones I guess.
