Here is a U-code automatic with power windows that was at a car show in the Bronx a few years ago. I should have a picture of the VIN somewhere.

Fender tags on L.A. made cars have the roof type shown on the tag twice.

An FJ5 car with a Gatortop is not a factory recommended color combination. Your tag carries the VO8 edit/waiver code similar to the tag for my hemi orange Superbee. First time I've seen VO8 on a tag other than mine.

My car is still really a project, so my pics are just different stages of the process. It had been tapped in the side at one point hard enough to buckle the rocker and floor, so I replaced all that. This picture makes me cringe, don't want to go back to those days! The second pic is probably the latest I've got. My gator top is not yet installed.

You cannot combine options to arrive at a number so all you can determine is how many R/T SEs had V1G.

Don Garlits has a Gator Grain Hemi Challenger in his museum, with a shaker no less. Here is a pic that I found on the net.

Although my car isn't a "Gator Grain" car - I can't wait for it to be all "light green metallic"!

Cool! I had always assumed your car was F8. I know many don't like FF4 but I think it looks great when it's fresh.

Of the V code challengers do you have any color codes for the body?

I had a v code 70 that we found the gator grain under some trim pcs. We thought it was very limited. No matter as we sold the car a good 15 years ago just wondering.

[quote He has a top made from NOS material (Stauffer Chemical dated 1969) that we got from Legendary many years ago - price seemed steep at the time ($850 - I think he paid that for the whole car) but after seeing what the repops are selling for now I don't feel so bad.








I too bought one from Legendary about 1990 or so. They had the original material and made one for me. I think I paid about 750.00
And that was a lot of money back then.

I have some updated info for you.
I have a `70 Cuda 440+6 with a V1G, Gator Grain code.
BS23V0E112***
FE5, 727, Power Windows.
Also is an N96, A22.
I bought the car in 2001 and have been looking for more info on it ever since (original owner, history of owners etc.)
It has a black boars grain top on it now but I have a new gator grain top to install when the time comes.
