I'm not sure if this is the one you are thinking of. I can't seem to find it to provide a link so I'll try to attach what I saved. Edit: Sorry that doesn't seem to work. I wonder if I can e-mail it to you.

Thanks for the info.
It's more about Cuda's with no Wheel opening moldings and the rolled hemi fender .
So I quess the Challenger would be the same with rolled Hemi Fender and not coded on Broadcast sheets for wheel opening moldings

I know which old thread you're talking about, but I can't seem to find it either, but there was another topic posted about this subject though:

I think there is a BIG difference when & how they were handled Cuda vs. Challenger.

Has anyone seen factory rolled fenders on a Challenger? I have not, at least not yet.

Is it possible that Hemi Challenger did not have Hemi fenders but at one point they did not put wheel opening moldings on late SPD Challenger
Mine is SPD 305 and no code on Broadcast sheet for them
Bob
On the other post I found about cuda. I worked at Creative and did most of the driver side fenders.Most turned out very nice considering how they decided to do them.I think we did them all until Feb or so when the "Hemi fender" was ready.BTW they all had the wheel lip mouldings. One more piece of info is that all the Challengers had the mouldings removed and should not be on a Challenger.I see lots of restored cars with them.Wrong.Built with them yes,delivered without them.

I have a factory rolled lip Challenger fender I bought new from Chrysler around 1980. Whether any cars were ever built with these fenders is another question.

Aha! A part number always helps. My parts book shows it listed for 1970 & 1971.

Brad, does it have the '71 notch in the plate at the front or not?

That would be me who worked at Creative Ind.The fender shown here is not a hand modded Hemi fender.We did not modify any fenders for service.Is that a TA fender? Is it the later available factory modded fender?(stamping changed in the middle lip area)It does not look like the ones I have seen. My post in the Restoration section is a bit more clear on the subject since I have had time to research the subject some since the earlier post noted here.

T/A fenders being modified is a myth. It was proposed, then cancelled.

Originally they were planned with the same size tires on all four corners, by using the smaller tires up front the modification was no longer needed.

Barry, yes it does. I was having a body shop do some rust repair on my T/A in '80 and told them I thought it was supposed to have "15" fenders" and that is what they ended up getting from Chrysler for my car.

VCODE can you post some pics of the Challenger you recently picked up along with some shots of the fenders, and are they original to the car or have they been changed before.

So far all the Hemi Challengers I have checked do not have rolled Hemi fenders, but most are before Jan 1970
I have seen some hemicuda's with hemi rolled fenders

I've got a '70 California built Challenger with both fenders rolled as pictured. I have no way of knowing if they are original. Its a WSS, originally 318 auto with AC per the fender tag. Other unusual features, it has pinion snubber that looks original and 26" radiator opening. When I got the car it had a 22" radiator with a big integral fill panel to close the gap. Perhaps the car started down the line as something else and the order got changed. Who knows.

I appreciate the "roll" now with wider front tires and also the big radiator opening.

All 1970 Challengers with AC got a 26" radiator.

I have still not seen any 1970 Challengers with rolled fenders from the factory.........
