After many years without my (first choice)70 and 73(very first car at 14) Cudas I have finally got my hands on another E body. I just picked up a complete VERY solid 73 Challenger I couldn't pass on for the price (well below current market) and extra new parts. 318 auto ac now had a a big block auto in it and I will put one in again. I am more familiar with Cuda body interchange parts so I have some questions because I want to make it look the way I like not all original. Can I just use 70- 72 Challenger bumper brackets to "suck in" the front and rear bumpers? Will a 70-71 front grill work in a 73 without modification? Never a fan of the 72-74 grill but the car will be all black so it may not be so bad. Is there any difference in the front valance and rear valance w/cut outs from 70-74? My front valance is crushed and they cut round holes in the rear valance to put the exhaust pipes through. Though it may be a cool custom touch if I make it look right. Can a 295/50/15 fit in the rear without modification? My current project is a 67 Cuda so for a while all my research has been devoted to A body stuff. Now I am refreshing myself on E body, been awhile. Thanks!
