I have a few friends with cars that have the code but I can't say all plants coded it, that would be a question for one of the true tag gurus... I know a little but I like to think I still have a life..

A reliable source answered that question for me once. Unfortunately, I don't recall the exact answer right now. I have the info saved somewhere... I believe he said that A63 only appears on some tags. It may not be on the SE cars tags because it was part of the SE package, meaning that A63 was for the Non-SE cars that wanted the SE trim.

OK, after seeing the other thread with a similar question, I dug through my notes and looked up the answer. Here you go...
A63 consists of... M31 - Body Belt Mouldings - top of 1/4s, doors, fenders, and hood no-code - Front Stone Shield Moulding no-code - Rear/Tail Panel Astrotone Moulding
A car with A63 will have A63 & M31 on the fender tag.
These pieces that made up the A63 molding group were all standard on a SE, and for that reason, A63 was not available on the SE cars. An SE car will have M31 on the fender tag, but Not A63.
A63 was a way to order these parts on a non-SE car.
M21 drip rail moldings will be coded on all the hardtop challengers.
M26 wheel lip moldings will be on the broadcast, but not on the fender tag on all the challengers except T/A and A66.
M05 door edge protectors & M25 rocker moldings were each available seperately from everything else.
M42 front stone shield molding & M44 hood rear and fender moldings are codes that were not used for Challengers. These codes are for Chargers and other cars.

And a Western Sport Special will have A63 as an automatic add.. Along with the woodgrained dash & a rimblow wheel... Plus a few other options I'm not remembering off the top of my head..

Actually I will never know, could not find a build sheet, I bought the car from a non mopar guy and I guess it had some pretty serious rot, so he(or the person he got the car from)was replacing sheet metal on it from a 70 challenger and was painting it panther pink and almost like he wanted a TA car...He had a 1:18 scale model of a pink TA Challenger in his garage and I think that was his goal...anyway, someone tried to steel it from him and it was missing a tie rod or something at the time, so they didnt get far with it and left it smashed into the trees a block down the road...And so when I bought it I tried to decipher an original color, and after studying it we think it was GoMango Orange, so thats what we went with...Maybe someday we will run into someone who knows more about it, I have tried to do some research, but havent had much luck...I know it was owned by a gentleman in the 80's in or near the Brevard or Melbourne, FL area...I was told it had been painted a couple times and once was a burgundyish color with a black vinyle top...

M42 & M44 are not used on any of the SE broadcast sheets I have. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have any A63 broadcast sheets or A46 broadcast sheets. Can someone out there check those (or upload here so we can see)? I expect that the codes won't be on any A63 sheets, but will be on all A46 sheets, even though both splash pan scoop & rear hood moldings are the same 70-71. I've also found that M42 IS used on 72 Challenger broadcast and fender tags, but it's not the same molding as the 71 version. Interestingly, M42 doesn't seem to be used on the 73-74 challengers, even though they used the same molding as 72. M44 doesn't seem to be used on any 72-74 Challenger. hmmm Tav

Yes, M42 is the front valance molding, somtimes reffered to as stone shield molding or front splash pan scoop molding. The M42 code seems to only be used on 1971 A46 molding package challengers, & also on the 1972 challengers. The part itself is different between 1971 & 1972. The 1971 version is also used uncoded on 1970 SE & 1970 A63 cars. The 1972 version is also used uncoded on 1973 & 1974 cars.
Yes, M44 is the back edge of the hood & fenders on 1971 A46 molding package challengers. These same parts are used on the 1970 SE & 1970 A63 cars, but on those cars they are considered as part of the M31 belt molding as the M44 code was not used. So, 1970 M31 is hood, fenders, doors & quarters, while 1971 M31 is only doors & quarters. Convertibles will use a different piece on the quarters than the hardtops do. The rear belt molding around the convertible top well is on all convertibles and is not part of the M31 package. The vinyl roof / V02 paint belt molding is also not part of the M31 package. 1971 M28 front hood molding is not belt molding and is also not part of the M31 package. I think the M44 rear hood molding is the same piece that's used on the chargers and is interchangeable, but I'm not sure about the fender pieces.
Strangely enough, there IS a local F8 green 1970 440 4 barrel Challenger R/T with hood and fender molding, but without door & quarter molding. Very Odd! The car sold new right here in town and has only changed hands a couple times. The owner has the broadcast sheet, and I've been dying to have another look at it since I noticed the strange trim.

It looks like I should have said that these codes were not used for 1970 Challengers. The A63 option and SE Challengers we were discussing were both only available in 1970.

M44 is the back edge of the hood & fenders on 1971 A46 molding package challengers. These same parts are used on the 1970 SE & 1970 A63 cars, but on those cars they are considered as part of the M31 belt molding as the M44 code was not used. So, 1970 M31 is hood, fenders, doors & quarters, while 1971 M31 is only doors & quarters.
All of the fender tag decoding sites I have looked at(including the one I printed 10 years ago) show that M31 is specifically belt & HOOD molding unless its 69-70, then there is another listing stating that M31(69-70)was just belt molding, which contradicts what your stating here, if Im understanding you correctly...Not that you dont have extensive knowledge and research as it sounds like you do, Im just wondering where these fender tag decoder sheets were derived and if these are wrong?

For the most part, those decoders are based on the research of Galen Govier. He has published this research in his white books, also known as pocket books. They are good resources and available on his website fairly cheap if you're interested in obtaining a copy for yourself. He has being doing this for a long time, and occasionally updates the books with new info. It possible that the online places copied both the outdated & the updated info. A lot of those online decoders copy from each other and don't really do any research of their own. If they do any research on their own, that research is prone to be be incomplete or questionable.
The biggest problem with almost any decoder is that they try to simplify the codes over a period of years and models, but in reality, the meaning/availability of the codes can change between years/models, and different models often use different parts for the same code. This is especialy true of grouped items like option packages.
For example,...
A Challenger trunk light won't be the same as a Roadrunner trunk light, even though they may both use the same trunk light code.
The 71 Challenger M42 molding is a different part from the 72 Challenger M42 molding.
M88 tail panel molding is 4 piece stainless on a 70 'Cuda, but the same code in the same year on a Gran Coupe Barracuda is a 3 piece aluminum molding.
Sometimes a code will not be used for a year, and then come back meaning something entirely different. You'll see that in the decoders when they try to add info from the late 70's or the 80's on top of the musclecar era stuff.
Even though M42 doesn't appear to have been used on 70 Challengers, it may have still been used on other mopars in 1970 and even in 1969, so the decoders would list it as M42 1969-1972. (this is just an example, M42 doesn't appear to have been used on anything in 1969)
For a decoder to really be reliable, it needs to be make and model specific.

How would I go about finding production info for all 71 challengers, like how many RT's were built, then how many of those were formal roof, and then how many were special ordered(K - special handling & Y39), and how many had a 999 paint code. Id like to have some display signs with a little history made up to use with my car @ shows...
Galens white book for 1969-1971 will tell you how many 71 Challenger R/Ts were built along with what their Engine/Transmission combo was. Convertibles are listed seperatly from hardtops in the book. It won't have any of the more specific info you're looking for though. It sounds like what your REALLY looking for is Galens 1971 Challenger R/T Options & Accessories Report. That will give you a much better idea how many 71 Challenger R/Ts came with each option code. I'd like to get all of his options & accessories reports myself, but so far I only have part of the 70 Challenger version.
Here's Galens contact info...

I don't think the website gets updated very often, and it may not show the item that you're looking for. It might be better to call on the phone.
I think that having a sign for your car is an excellent idea. You have a rare and interesting car. Having the sign will let everyone know about it, instead of just those of us who can decode the tag.

Just curious, on a '70 Challenger convertible, what would be the code on the back hood, top fender/door moulding?
The 70 Challenger convertible broadcast sheets I have are not coded for that molding. Near as I can tell though, the code would be M31, the same as the other 70 Challengers. Same code, even though the quarter top molding is a different part for the convertible.
M31 may not have been available seperately from the A63 package though, so possibly BOTH codes would appear.

I have seen numbers around 229 for Formal Roof A78 coded cars. I truly love seeing these car's pop up. I have only seen 1 in my area and it was for sale at Carlisle. They seem to show up here and there. Between people talking and pictures Ive seen as well as eBay - I have known about maybe 15 total.
There's always someone who chimes in on the A78 threads who says they aren't special, or they see them all of the time. They are unique, and I hope to see another 1 in person. There is a B5 RT in a book i saw recently that is barn found that looks cool.
My fender tag is loaded too, but they only went with a 318 which doesn't bother me. I don't have to feel bad about having a stroker in its place.

Hi Tav, M42 or M44 does not appear in my Challenger's broadcast sheet. SPD of my vert is A28, maybe later those codes might be included in the broadcast sheet?
That did cross my mind actually. Galen's white book shows that both codes were used in 1970, it just doesn't say if they were used on Challengers or if it was some other car. Possibly the codes started being used REALLY late in 70 production?
I think a more likely option is that the codes were used on some other mopar in 70, and not on Challengers.
A third option is that Galen is wrong, and the codes aren't used in 70 at all.

THANKS! I don't need it for this, but would LOVE to have a copy of a 318 hardtop Challenger sheet for other research. Any chance you could scan it and email it to me?
For this thread, the only thing left is to check and A46 sheet, but if the codes are on the fender tags, it's a really safe bet they're on the sheets also.

Late Enough? Bought it in 74 sold it in 98...

Yep, that's late enough for me. Is that the last day of production or something? Wow.
It's an SE, so there isn't an A63 code, but the M42 & M44 codes would have been there IF they were being used at the time. Since they're not, it's pretty safe to say NO M42 or M44 on 70 Challengers.
That's a REALLY nice car Randy! I don't think that I would have been able to sell something like that.

Here are my tags:
I still contend thats a Omaha Orange car by the paint around the LH screw hole on that FT.
Did you look under the package tray for overspray?

EK2 - "go mango metallic" was canceled after the 1970 model year; so it would be "special order", Y39 & 999 for '71.

You mean Go Mango EK2 was dropped for 71? EV2 hemi orange was a regular option and a relatively pretty popular color in 71 Challengers.
EV2 has gold metallic in it. IIRC, Go Mango does not.
Go Mango does have metallic flakes in it.

I have a two tag 71 Challenger R/T with wide hood molding and A46 molding group.
Is there a side stripe code on the tag. Can't remember off hand.
The side stripes are a common to add at any point in the cars life. Even likely at the dealer after deliverly.
Do 71 Challenger protective side molding have body rivits/flanges to hook the molding on with like 1970's do?

The tach code is only on the broadcast sheet.
Correction: My statement above is incorrect.

It's a typo - he typed M85 but that would not come after M91 - that should be N85
