Can someone chime in and let me know if a complete B body rocker panel might fit a 70-71 E body application. Any help greatly appreciated, Thanks in advance.

Nope. Way different. Also 70E rockers are different than 71E rockers and Challengers are 2" longer than Cudas.

In the way they are attached or in the appearance??  Both years are the wide style.
71 Cuda's are thin and Gran Coupes are wide with ribs. Don't know if 71 and 70 Gran Coupes share the same rocker molding.
I always thought 70 and 71 Challengers rocker moldings were the same.  I have an NOS pair for my 71 and a couple of used ones. Look the same, but they could obviously be from the same year of course.

I thought he was talking about actual rocker panels, not moldings.

Duh, you're right. My bad. Don't replace a lot of complete rockers here in So Cal. Went right over my head.

Mark,
How do the 70E's differ?
Thanks,

On the inside, there is no ledge for the floor pans to lay on like on the 71/4's.

ok yes.. that's actually a separate part I'd call the
"inner rocker".
but the outer rocker skin is the same, correct?
Thanks,
Rick
Yes the outter skins are the same for all years.

Thanks to all who cleared the rocker panel issue up for me. So what I'm looking for is a good straight & solid drivers side rocker panel from a 71-74 Cuda. I need the side cowl area also, up to the windshield post and firewall. Any leads out there would be appreciated! Again Thanks to all who responded to my original post.
