    gichy,
      I'll put my neck on the line and say they look like the ones on my Challenger. I would see them working on a 71 Cuda also. Why is the one ring painted green  dontknow What year and make of car do you have?

    Not sure what year but the seller has a lot of challenger parts, so i'm asuming that it is off a challenger

    Rusty are you saying that there are two different sizes? My car has the single headlight on each side. Not sure what size they are?

    OK, then Mine are not good for you anyway, double setups use smaller parts, if I get a min I'll shoot the two different sets together to give you an Idea,  Rich.

    Sorry man, you got the same ones as me than, just got a set off a 70 cuda, seem to match mine, the first guy said 71/74 so I just thought it was 2 sets, I'm not positive what they belong to, maybe a 71 cuda, with the duals or a challenger, I still need one more set for the other car, or I will hack up the ones I bought & attempt to reweld the joint & weld one of the mounts on each?  never welded stainless, don't know what to expect? Rich

    the big ones are about 7" dia. the smalls are bout 5 3/4"

    gichy, and RUSTY Cuda,
      There are 2 different size trim rings when you are talking about 70-74 Cudas. 70, and 72-74 should all be the 7 inch type. The 71's had the same as the Challenger. I believe they were 5 inch. It sounds like you both are stuck bs

    Thank for the info.

    I also need the bracket that the bucket and rings atach to, the part which bolts to the fenders.  I don't believe any body still makes them. Will have to keep looking on ebay.

    OK,
      There is some crap here. It looks like some ignition coils and who knows what else, BUT we have those 7" headlight buckets and rings :D Good luck.
