Need to know the factory finish on the fuel line vapor shield located behind the rear wheelhousing on the passenger side.The shield is only for cars with N95.Should itbe painted or is it plated like the repros?

Troy's old '70 T/A with California N95 Emissions. I pretty sure it's not galvanized on this car.

Don't all 1971 car have this? N95 or not?

This is what I was talking about.

And even though this says they're the same , I think 1970 was different than 1971's

or maybe it was cudas were different than challengers?( don't remember )

not sure about the on all 71's part

What was the plant and SPD of your car?

IIRC, you had a A66 340 1970 Challenger?

I have a 71 N95 car and mine was painted black when I took it apart or had black paint on it. The car was never apart before I got it.

1970 Challenger 340 .
LA plant early Dec 1969 , CA emmissions car( spent most of its life in San Fransisco)

I don't remember it having any paint on it,(maybe some undercoating ) but the car had near 100K miles on it, so I guess it could have worn off over time
