Ok, that's the problem I had with the Legendary boot cover in my Challenger. If I put the clips on the well trim, the cover was way too tight to reach the slide in track for the welt. If I have the welt in the track, I can't stretch the boot enough to get the clips on the well trim. I'm waiting...
Sorry. I should have clarified that I bought those metal spring type clips at least 25+ years ago through Year One. I bought them to replace broken ones in my original boot and to have someone make and put them in a new boot. A friend use to do car and boat upholstery but he's retired. I was...
I too have found it nearly impossible to get the new style clips that come on the reproduced boots to clip on like the original clips. I also recently bought a repro Legendary boot. I've considered using some heat from a hair dryer but it has gone to the bottom of the list of things I have to do...
There were mods made to alot of these cars in their early years. I was in the Navy in 1972 when I bought my 71 convertible. I had the car parked on base and I came out to my car one day after it had been parked overnight. Someone had tried to remove the shaker setup and must have got scared off...
The grille looks like a non-stock 72-74 grille ( it looks like it has a mesh screen). The front header panel is broken on both ends. A couple of the chrome headlight rings are missing. No bumper there of course. Hood latch and secondary latch missing. Drivers side header panel to fender bracket...
Different front fenders as the 72 -74 Challenger did not have the welded in headlight buckets like the 70-71 Challengers. The 72-74 Challengers had a fiberglass front header panel that held the grille and headlight buckets in. There are other differences such as brackets that hold the 1970...
The screws in the sill plate insert into u-nuts installed in the plastic kick and rear panels that go under the sill plate. There are slots in the plastic panel ends where the u-nut clip goes. Look at my first photo in reply #34 above. Zoom in and you can see the slot in the rear panel end that...
I can maybe give you a little insight using my 72 Challenger. The canister bracket was originally mounted on the inner fender just forward of the washer bottle. There are 3 nut inserts mounted in an upside down Y configuration on the inner fender panel. I moved mine around 90 degrees to the...
Air conditioning or not? Are the heater hoses getting hot/warm to the touch with engine at operating temperature and heater selected to on? With A/C, is the heater control valve in engine compartment operating. Are the doors inside heater box opening/closing? Is it a new heater core or an old...
