I believe is was stock on all challengers. But I could be wrong.

@68postcar thank you.
I got the gas tank / filler neck in and bumper in. New gas tank from AMD it was a tight fit with the resonators and heat shield. And a bit of a ***** to get that filler neck into the tank with the seal in it.
But it came out beautiful.

Got all the firewall done, heater box I rebuilt started the wiring. Hoping to start it up and have it done by spring fling. Was hoping for mopars at the strip but that's not gonna happen

Does anyone have any pics of the seatbelt retractor covers in the car. I took the car apart so long ago I can't remember.
Thanks so much

I got the side decals on, – steering column steering wheel and I got the engine started everything sounded great. Just a little left and I will be able to drive her. The wheels on the car now are just temporary

Man I love the color combo on your car.
Did you ever find a retractor cover? I have at least one but I'll have to dig it out. I seem to remember them being a white plastic part.

 

[moparmofo]

I Actually have the retractors I just needed a pic of how it lays on the floor
But thank you!

re: Retractor Covers

Nice job by the way!! I am completing something similar to yours and know the challenges you've faced.
As for the retractor covers, they simply "sit" over the retractors and on the floor up against the rocker panel. Once the carpet is in, the seatbelt guides (black plastic with slots in them) attach to the retractor covers with 2 screws.

Hope that helps.

ps: What motor have you got? 383?
