[mopar410]

I have a 72 cuda with the r26 radio option which is the am radio with cassette.Well from what I've read the console mount was a 71 option only,the thing is this car was biult in 11-71 and sold or picked 12-71 so it may ordered withe the console mount radio with the mic.So is this an extremely rare setup.the car is a matching # 340 car.

I bought a 72 Challenger in 74 with that option. I would think it would have been offered on the Cuda too. It may not have been an intended option in 72 but the factory will run what they have on hand until the stock has run out and this is the reason why printed material isn't always right.

I just got this from another web site and it states it was offered in 72 and my fender tag calls for it.I agree about the printed material.

I may be wrong on this, but I think it ran all the way to 1974
