Actually it just hit me if the valance didn’t have the exhaust tip cut outs it would be pretty difficult to install the the fuel tank after the valance.

I’m just fishing around for more opinions on when the valances were installed pertaining to the paint process. I have an under coated (J55?) 71 so I thought I’d see if the gas tank had under coating behind the valance, it does not. So I removed the tank with the valance installed, it can be done...

Thanks for the heads up

Bingo! I knew I had seen it somewhere. Thanks Charlie

Is anyone reproducing the plastic plug for dash harness where the ignition switch plugs in? It’s for my 71 Challenger, I’m sure it was used on many years and models. Thanks Charlie

Katfish rubbing it in

As long as it’s not a snake I’m ok

sorry I can’t take credit that’s just a reference photo from the web

Thanks for the input, not sure we are talking about the same hole if you are referencing the hole in the torsion bar cross member in your photo, I am referring to the inner rocker.

Do the holes in the rear inner rocker panel get a body plug? If so what type, plastic cup type or rubber?

Was there a body plug in the hole at the rear of the inner rocker panel.

Thanks, I cut the spot welds and pushed and pulled and straightened the bracket, got the panel in front of the hood bumper. Much better, but in my research I see two different locations for the hood bumper, one survivor has them near the headlight bracket like mine (my fenders are OEM...

The brace is all the way out, visible in my second pic. I don’t see the threads for your hood adjustment rubber bumper is it behind the panel? Mine is in front, as shown in my first pic. Thanks Charlie

The brace is all the way out, it is seen in my 2nd pic. One of the bezels is original to the car ‘71 and the other I purchased from Dodge dealership in mid to late 70s. Thanks I appreciate you taking time to show interest and reply.

71 Challenger, I have a big gap between the headlights and the bezels on both sides. The fenders are OE Mopar replacements installed in the early 80s. The grill to bumper reveal looks about right and I checked the numbers on the buckets the lights mount to they seem to be correct, (all 4 for...

Thanks guys great info, so doors fenders and possibly/probably valances were bolted on before dip. Not much room between the front valance and radiator core support on a E-body to shoot paint up from a pit. No wonder they were sloppy.

anyone out there have any thoughts on my assembly line valance primer/ paint question?

If you’re going to put 5000 miles on with no racing, factory heads, rockers etc. are hard to beat stop light to stop light.

Were the valances installed when E bodies were dipped in primer and painted with the rest of the car? Any body color over spray on the inside. Did they blackout the lower radiator support with the valance in the way?
