Not a convertible, but I didn't think it made a difference.
Careful, that's a probably a pre production picture or drawing.
Kissalien owes some bumble bee striped cars. At least one A66 car, IIRC.
Any other original bumble bee striped 70 Challenger A66 or R/T's?? Or people who have sanded that area down?

Built date 5/70 But due to this post I went and inspected my car and my blackout is over the red paint so not impossible someone done it in the 5 years before I got it if the only way it was done was done is before paint. So hope this helps but if you like the look of it blacked out and I do, DO IT !

My build date is 5/15/70. I've had it since early '90s and it's had one repaint, but I've always thought it was original. Particularly, because the way the top of the tail light bezels were blacked out.

This car's tail light bezels are blacked out too.

As far as my car I will check it tomorrow and try too get pictures. But too add fuel to the fire I have an original 1970-71 parts catalog dated late Dec. 1971 and on page 23-242 there is a 1970 rtse with black out and on page 23-592 a 1971 r/t with black out also. I know there not convertibles just I do not think T/A s were the only ones.

I don't see why there would be any correlation to Convertible or not. But there might be something to do with the SE panel A63 group or a time period thing.
The original poster asked was was original. "Do it whatever you like best" doesn't answer his question.

Are you talking about an aluminum SE tail panel (included with A63 & should be astrotone) painted black?
Or the steel body panel that the aluminum panel covered?
I believe he is talking about the standard body panel.. I changed it with the A63/SE panel but my point is things were done by the factory that there may be no documentation of...
