My, how times have changed the definition of a junk/parts car !!!  
You got that right!!! I wonder if a Moparts member ended up with the 'Cuda? It was in Worchester, MA in the back of a body shop, a guy named Wayne owned the place, lots of Mopars died back there 
Sorry to get off of the original topic

What should the finish be on the hinge screws?
Thanks,

Hey Rick, Thanks for them Rivnuts, worked perfectly on both the louver hinge mounts and side mirrors  As for the correct finish for the louver screws, dunno... I just used stainless screws for longevity since the car is not restored to original. What did you use on "El Hemi's" hinges? Gil

RIck, I wish I would have known, I would have waited to see your louvers which I am sure will be outstanding. I bought Gean's knowing I would not get gaskets, correct hardware, etc...

I'm not sure if the chally had it's own version of the textured moulding...As for the cuda..Not all the louver equiped cars ended up with the textured moulding...On that note, the 70 Gran Coupe recieved the textured moulding if it was ordered with a Black vinyl top...
Did the textured molding only come on the louver cars with vinyl tops, and louver cars without vinyl got the bright molding maybe?

Absolutely you could order louvers without a vinyl top... There was a note in the salemens pocket guide that confused the issue.. What it was intended to mean is if a vinyl top was ordered the top had to be black... The only car I know of locally coded for louvers is a FY1 T/.A without a vinyl top.. No textured mouldings for Challengers, No black moulding either... The textured mouldings came on most Cuda's with louvers but not all, the textured mouldings also came on most Gran Coupe Cuda's/Barracuda's but not all.... About as clear as mud huh?
