Is the rear finish panel not correct in argent? Was that trim package available as a option? Maybe A63? I will admit I am not up to speed on Challengers
This is an original paint car, but it certainly could have been switched out at some point.
Thanks Matt
You have A63 on your tag then?
It's the standard panel for an SE. Only reason I sold mine was I was informed (credible source, they're wrong too) it couldn't be had with my car.

I am trying to learn all I can on these cars. Let me know what you need to see on the hood and I will shoot a few photos and post them up.
Matt
Thanks for adding the pics, one area of interest is the way the stripe was masked/not masked in the bumper jamb area. Is the A/C still on the car? Is there dealer paperwork for adding it to the car? IMO the rear sway bar has also been added.

My car ( the black one) does not have AC or a rear sway bar. If you need any other shots just let me know. I will try to help.

If your referring to the blue car shown above, It is an original H51 factory A/C car( my old car. ) the rear sway bar was added, as were the power windows and the 6 way seat. It had the SE finish panel on the back of it when I bought it. I was told it was added by the original owner when the car was bought new. When I did the car I had an nos one so it went back on ( I liked the looks of it) It came out of the San Francisco area. I still have the original ft bumper,, and it has a USAF base access sticker on it in case anyone knows of the car.
Enjoy life today, It has an expiration date

Matt, a couple questions about the black car.
Is there evidence of red paint on the brake drums? Are there spacers (both sides) under the lower rebound bumpers on the lower control arms? Is there an original window sticker or dealer invoice with the car?
Dan
Not sure why they went with the F size tires instead of the E's Personally I prefer the factory size tires.
I checked again, add on rear sway bar is still there, AC system has been pulled.
The drums have been painted black but I can definitely see traces of red paint.
There are spacers under the bumpers.
I do not have the window sticker or invoice. I do have paper work from the original dealership concerning warranty work. Also have the original owners manual with the cars VIN. CA registrations and insurance paperwork, numerous maintenance paper work items.
I have attached a photo of the engine bay. (Radiator was switched out at some point) Anybody have a correct one they want to part with?
Previous owner freshened up the engine. I am kind of torn here. It looks great but I might have left it with the wear.
This is my first Challenger and I really like the car. Pretty solid and drives great.
Matt
