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?
