For what its worth, the glass in my '71 Challenger vert is of the riveted construction, just like the pics from EW1BH27 above. My door tag indicates AUG '70 build - however, there are a lot of 1970 parts on the car from new. Are Challenger and 'Cuda vert 1/4 window assemblies the same...
I am needing the black plastic round slide that attaches to the long bolt of the quarter window and slides along the outside edge of the front track. See pictures.
I just need the large round piece with the slot in it. I only need one. I do have the retainer washer that holds it in place...
I agree with "Ricks72Chlgr440".
I used two non-polarity electronic LED flashers in case the wiring of the OEM connectors was "backwards". No issues - just a little more expensive.

There is an O-ring that seals the nut to the block. Most likely missing or cut.

Have you considered DOT5 brake fluid? Siicone based and will not eat your paint!
(DOT 3, 4, and 5.1 will eat paint.)
I agree. It's an easy upgrade on the 440 MP electronic distributor, too. I bought some vintage Delco HEI modules from member Halifaxhop, gapped plugs to .040 (for now) - it runs great. Starts right up. I still have a lot to do on the car before it's "street ready", but feel the HEI...
Welcome! - officially from Colorado, but I’m back in SW Michigan this week.
In case you aren’t aware, this Saturday is the annual “Mopars at the Red Barns” show and swap meet at the Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners Michigan (just north of Kalamazoo). Nice show and awesome car museum.
I agree. Not a tough conversion from standard to rallye. Assuming your car came with the rallye dash, it should already have the 3 speed wiper motor, 3 speed switch, linkage and electric washer pump. I believe 72-74 3 speed motors and switch are different from 70-71.
After you get the gauge cluster in, you may want to put some masking tape on the left side of the cluster to help prevent potential scratches in the “wood” bezel trim when manipulating the switch panel into place.
Bought my 71 Challenger vert in NOV1970. August build original FC7 car. Have had it ever since. Just got it back from a restoration shop (body and paint only) and am now working to put it all back together. She's part of the family now.
I’m interested in the shoddy pad and maybe a set of the spark plugs. I’ll PM you when I get home this evening.
Thanks - Bill

I sent a PM earlier but cannot find any record of it in FEBO account conversations - lost to cyberspace.
I just sent another PM. Please advise if you do not...
I'll take #6 71 Challenger $10 for the pair . A little dinged on the outer edges.
How badly "dinged" is the driver side headlight bezel??
