All '69 plymouth hemi RR's had the air grabber, did they not? That was certainly the case with Hemi Superbees and the (optional for all non-hemis) Ramcharger set up.

Yep, all 1969 Hemi Road Runners & Hemi GTXs came with the Air Grabber hood... o'course that will probably be argued about too...

I have yet to see any real evidence of early production cars with red screens (back-in-the-day photos, survivor cars, etc)... especially early St Louis cars.

No fresh air screens on that one, solid vents are always black.

When did solid inserts come with the hood stripes?

When you ordered hood stripes and didn't order the air grabber.

Hood stripes were about an $18 option and had nothing to do with the air grabber option

I agree. In defense of Moparcanuck, the announcer did state that it was equipped with an air grabber. When you view the road test, it clearly shows a hood pad and stock air cleaner for a non AG hood. It's a cool 5 minute road test of a new GTX if you haven't viewed it!
