Rear color

[Mopar73340]

Ok here is my question and thanks in advance. What color were the rear tail pannel and tail lights painted from the factory in 73 on a rallye car that was painted white? I know the darker cars were painted argent with black around the lights but was the opposite true for a light colored car or was the entire rear painted black? Can't seem to find any pics that show a clear shot of an original car again thanks..... dontknow

  I can't believe i didn't think of this sooner, but (and i'm checking to see if i've got it on tape) Speedvision has/had been showing episodes from the old show Car and Track. Each episode featured a race and current production vehicle spotlight. One of those episodes spotlights a 340 Challenger Rallye. I don't believe it was a white car though.

I think 'CUDAs look best black on the back and '72 and up Challengers look best argent silver but on a
white car black looks pretty cool

Don't know what's correct on Challys but I don't think you can go wrong patriot

LB i know you've mentioned your Dad's 73 Rallye. Although not white it's a 340 car - what color is the tail panel if it hasn't been changed?

LB's dads car is Yellow with a black tail panel.   My brother had one just like it!

When the time comes, my 73's will be black too.

My 73 is Top Banana with argent

73, the rallye cars should receive a completely black taillight panel.  Argent silver was used on the non-rallye cars.  Black would look so much better on a white car anyways. thumbs rice

[moparnut]

nope,mine was argent according to the fender tag

yeah,i dont know the real truth,but my 73 cudas' is black& thats what i'm going to repaint it that way.well,goodluck in your decision  .p.s. my cuda is white, the guy i got it from says that was the color it was when he bought it off the lot.

I had a similar post not too long ago on the exact same thing - I have a '73 Challenger with silver tail light housings ( check in the body section under tech column, the thread was titled " so what is the correct color " )

I still unsure, but the silver still looks good so I am going to leave it  dontknow

When I bought my yellow Rallye, the middle of the panel was body colour, and the light housings were argent.  I have since painted them black, but they were argent to begin with.

  At this rate we'll find out how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Charms Tootsie Roll Lollipop before we know the tail panel colors on 72-74 Rallyes, lol. Say Galen if you're listening, how's about throwing us a bone on this one??
