V21 option on an unrestored 69 Charger R/T

Interesting, I don't recall ever seeing this on a 69. That's painted right? Aren't the 70s similar but tape?

No offense Randy but here's a little better pic of a '69 Plymouth with V21...

I kind of wanted to know that too. I think it was only an option if you had the v21 treatment. Over the years some owners could have elected to paint the grille argent rather than original, or just used an argent replacement grille. I saw one with the lower grille body color and thats definately incorrect. Another item I find of interest is my lower grille turn signal lenses are orange except for a small clear rectangle in the center of the lense. Car was built Oct 71

My car is gold, & the OE grille was the Sun Gleam Silver, not body color. I've never figgered-out just how you specified a body-color grille on a '72 Cuda, or even IF you could SPECIFY one???

Here's a listing of the colors: 72 ordering info- 72 'Cuda-grille colors

Parts book shows only one grille for the 'Cuda so maybe replacement grilles were argent?

I`m more than willing to be proven wrong, but I was under the impression that Hood Blackout was unavailable on 71 Challengers?

According to production figures approximately 418 R/Ts and 62 non-R/Ts came with it.

So what would the 62 non-R/Ts with V21 have?

I have a 1972 Cuda with the V21 option on my data tag. I believe this was a 72 only option for Cuda's. Mine also came with a color keyed grill (which is not on the data tag??) and I do not have a build sheet.


Here is a pic of what mine will look like if I ever paint it

71 Road Runners had the grill behind the air grabber bubble black. 72 didn't have it on the grill area behind the air grabber. Anyone who does have one like that it had to slide thru from the factory.V21 in 72 were the long stripes on the hood aside the air grabber bubble.

Original paint / owner 71 GTX NOT coded for V21 on the tag....looks like this one slipped through the cracks. I talked to the owner and he confirmed it had always been that way.

No slip on that car. Pretty common actually but there has been some debate on 71 N96 Roadrunners and GTXs. Seems pretty much all came with the paint behind the scoop. Since it was bundled with the N96, the extra code on the tag wasn't necessary. Some plants started leaving the code off.

Same thing with the 72 V21/V25 combo. Since V25 stripes always were packaged with V21 stripes, the code was redundant. Whether or not you got a V25 code depends on the plant and broadcast date. V25 is found on all V21 Windsor cars, but few St. Louis cars. Just saves space on the tag.

Actually, my experience with 72s is just the opposite, V21/V25 is coded on St Louis cars, but Winsor cars only had V21 on the tag.

As for 71s, I have to disagree with you on that too. I've been tracking these cars for a long time now. I have very early cars from all plants with N96 and no V21, and I also have very late build cars with V21 and N96 on the tag. There is no coding trend based on build plant either.
The car pictured was a two tag car, so there would be no reason to try to save tag space.

---

Whoops. I stand corrected on the 72. Just checked a couple of photos. My StL build car has a repro tag with no V25, so it threw me. I've seen a couple Windsor tags lacking the V25.

May have just depended on who was stamping tags on that day.

71 N96's are inconsistent for sure, both on the tag code, and the actual paint application.
