Has anybody ever heard of a V code 1972 Challenger???

[DetMatt1]

I drilled my '68 RR apart at the spot welds almost completely during the resto process and I didn't even find the ones that were supposed to be there! Lol!

 

[DetMatt1]

Jeff, I was thinking about it and you should check the engine crossmember for the coin with the part number on it and also the build date should be stamped on it too.

Size of the torsion bars...

I don't think 72's have a coin. My 73 doesn't.

The 72 V code B bodies are unique because it was originally going to be an option. Just a handful of cars were built before the option was discontinued. BB's in 72 E-bodies were never an option.

The VIN's that were considered 'hidden', when the cars were new, are the VIN's on the cowl and radiator support. The one not 'hidden' is on the dash pad.

Thanks Burdar.
Do you have any place I can reference this to? Did Mopar actually build a 440" 6pk in a '72 Challenger? :dontknow::eusa_eh:

 

[moparleo]

He just said that BB's ( read 383,426,440 ) were never an option on E-bodies, 1972 Challenger's or Barracuda's. But a few B-bodies like Charger, Roadrunner, GTX ... were..

 

[challenger6pak]

Jeff, to repeat a few questions. Did the car come with a/c? Does it have torque boxes on the frame rails? What are the numbers on the torsion bars?

 

[moparmusclecars]

Again, Is it just me, or does it seem a lot of people come here asking what something is worth, then never respond back again? lol

 

[challenger6pak]

It gives us something to do. LOL.

 

[moparleo]

This thread is dead. Please close it.

 

[DetMatt1]

No reason to close a thread that has the potential to invoke interesting conversation.

 

[moparleo]

Ok Back to the original question " has anybody ever heard of a V code 1972 Challenger ???

The overwhelming consensus is No. Never happened.
OK anything else ?

 

[challenger6pak]

How about the 71 T/A Challenger?

 

[moparleo]

You mean the one that appeared in the 1971 brochure?

 

[challenger6pak]

Yes. I know all about it. You missed the pun. LOL.

 

[moparleo]

I can't always tell the depth of the members knowledge. Touche' to you.

 

[DetMatt1]

See? Now if the thread were closed for whatever reason, I still can't think of one, that little bit of enjoyable banter wouldn't have happened. This place is not very busy and has a rather low post count so why worry about locking threads?

 

[moparleo]

I know. I have always been more interested in the quality, not the quantity.

 

[DetMatt1]

If you see a post that's not "quality" enough for you Leo, then don't respond to it. I wasn't aware that this was your forum.
