My 71 V-code GTX is still in the original paint and has the 440 call outs, not the 440+6. I was curious also and was told that they all came this way. The 440+6 call outs were aftermarket?

Now for those wanting to get their feet wet with a 71 Road Runner project I have two available.

It was part of the A87 package on the road runner and was available on the GTX as code M75. Not available on sebring or SSP

What criteria determines the fender "engine call out" decal, Mine had the straight "440" on it and i`ve seen many original V code cars with the same, BUT...i`ve seen just as many with the 440+6.




The factory definitely had part numbers for both "440" and "440+6" decals. Not sure about why some cars did and some didn't...I would guess either they ran out on the assembly line or just human error?

Ok, I don't want to ruffle any feathers here, but this is my opinion why I like the 71s better.

1. All the best engines in one year.
2. All the hottest high impact colors.
3. The spoilers. (Technically, the 72 didn't come with the rear wing... right?)
4. The 71 side marker lights are awesome... so intracit(spelling?)... so involved. The 72s are the generic jobs.
5. The bird head in the grille is simply the coolest thing I have ever seen on a musclecar...period!

I will give one consession to the 72 model... the fact that the RR has its own grille... different from Satellites. Thats pretty cool, but I still dig the bird head in the 71 grille better.

My earliest memories of this body style date back to when I was about 5 years old in 1974. My parent's neighbor's daughter drove a brown 72 Satelliet Sebring Plus. I used to pretend my BIGWHEEL was a 72 Satellite... and other misc. Mopars

Oh ya, there are a couple others who posted in this thread that liked the '72 tail lights better. But that's what makes the world go around. Different likes and preferences.

71 Tail Lights for me over the 72`s any day

No disrespect meant to 72 owners....as with anything it`s just a personal preference
I`m just happy that 71`s-2`s are finally starting to gain in popularity...all of us need to remember not too awful long ago when they weren`t.
