Someone in our car club gave me a 1970 Challenger and 1970 Barracuda fender tags. They came off junk yard cars 30+ years ago.

I thought I'd post them because they are sort of cool cars even though they are 318 autos. The Challenger is a Western Sport Special built in LA and I thought Barry sort of keeps track of these?

The Barracuda has a rallye hood and cruise control. IIRC, there was something about ralley hoods like mid year availability?

I just decoded these quick on Mymopar.com, so they might be inaccurate. Please correct if you see something.

Would that Barracuda have got the wide side bumper trim like this?.

If so, it would have been a sort of a triple black car with black interior, black paint and black side molding with stripe surround:

As a side note, do all 1970 Challengers have an END, 1970 Cudas EN1 and 1971 Cudas EN2,just wondering, seems to be a pattern.

There were a number of items that were STANDARD equipment on '70 'Cudas (hood pins/"sport" hood/fog lights) that became available OPTIONS on Barracuda/Gran Coupe during the model year.

Which of those carried over to 71 Barracudas?

All of them were available on '71 BH & BP, & the fog lights became an OPTION (no longer STANDARD) on '71 'Cudas BS.

Why does the V1W code show up twice on the Challenger tag?

Is that common?

It's a "LA" thing.
