Red screens went with the Air Grabber not the stripes. We can argue that there ARE some black screens that were produced (or replaced) but when you ordered the Air Grabber you expected to get RED screens with or without hood stripes or color of the car body.

The owner of this '69 GTX has the before original photos of the red grills (window sticker and broadcast sheet). And when I ordered my '69 road runner in '69 with the Air Grabber there was an ad that stated the Air Grabber came with "fire breathing red grills". As I said I've seen some black grills but I'd bet if someone had the engineering drawings it would read they should be red. 7198524-DSC03674rs.jpg (380 downloads)

That's what I believe too. V21 has no effect

One was a Hemi car with Nov SPD and I don't know the other SPD. If I was voting based on my experience I would say red only came with the hood treatment?

And I would vote the other way; V21 has nothing to do with red vs. black screens. I believe that the black screens were an early production and/or plant thing and had nothing to do with the stripes.
