New Charger 71 SE owner, need info on model
2 Attachment(s)
Hi forum, just bought 71 charger 383 SE
its my first classic car, so i will have tons of questions, but for now, im really wondering about that side molding my car has, i couldnt find a single charger with same one on the internet, so just wondering, is it a special additional option or just everyone removes it? Will i have any problems by removing it? Thank you |
Its a dealer add on from the 80s!!!!! Junk

You have nice Charger, need to here more.:)

mouse -
I'd say someone put that on after the fact. The "fact" being a door ding and not wanting another one. They work - but unless it's going to be a daily driver, just too fugly. But be careful, if that's old paint, some of it might come off when/if you remove the striping. Archer |
They are aluminum secured with rivets and a vinyl insert.:)

Thank you all, btw, sorry for my English, I'm from Cyprus=)
Ok, gotcha, junk staff, They are aluminum secured with rivets and a vinyl insert , you asked more about the car, so its 383 charger, stored since 1991, automatic, numbers matching. Im planning to actually "drive" this car, I guess this is why they were built) So, not yet sure, what I gonna do with it, of course new painting, engine rebuilding, mb will upgrade suspension, brakes. Really, any advise welcome. Ah, btw, car is not with me yet, shipped from Netherlands. |
1million , doubtful. Hahaha:)

I have the same vehicle same color same top but no side trim on mine.There are no marks I see where the side trim is on yours. I believe mine was manufactured in canada rear bumper brackets and rear drums stamped canada. yours was maybe manufactured somewhere else. I don't think it would hurt anything to remove it.

Oh lol, just noticed that 5 years passed, gosh, what a ride it was, i could probably write a book about that resto, every single thing didnt went as planned.
But here you go, here how it looks now Do i ride it? probably got less than 300 miles, 3 fuel pump died, double carbs failed, moved to EFI, week ago on the first drive , old u joint got destroyed. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/moparfo...87009d1a86.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/moparfo...5c3e02a3f1.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/moparfo...70ceb4578d.jpg |
