I just replaced my carpet a couple months ago. The bracket screws directly to the tunnel floor. The second photo is an old photo of my cassette taken at least 15 years ago.

FOR SALE CHALLENGER. DECK LID
Are you sure that's a Challenger decklid? My Challenger decklids all have the front corners come to a square -type point, not rounded like that decklid. Maybe a Cuda lid.

which top manufacturer did you go with? Do you feel the quality was as good as the original top? I don't see many places...

If you have the door panel inserts and just need the woodgrain see this:

Be aware the 73 Challenger had a 2 speed wiper motor as well as a variable speed wiper motor available. You probably want to go with what you have for linkage. The insets and console plate are available as reproductions as far as I know.
