Hoping to get some advice from the Brains trust on which hood emblem belongs on the leading edge of my '70 R/T SE 383 Challenger. The service manual shows that there was either a "DODGE" or the SE symbol on the hood, but doesn't give a clue as to which one it should be.
The hoods been resprayed, so there's no obvious mounting holes showing through - even the underside of the hood is difficult to see. There's definitely an indentation in the centre cutout on the underside of the hood, but without removing the paint in there, hard to see if there's holes in the other four cutouts for the "DODGE" letters.
As much as I hate to do it, my next step is to remove some of the pain on the underside of the hood to see if there's bolt holes in all 5 cutouts.
If anyone has information on what all the external emblems are on my R/T SE I would be most grateful! I know it's not standard, as the build sheet specifies a yellow bumble bee stripe on the tail, not the standard R/T side stripes. So she's a little special ...
