They had to have been 330 HP N code automatic cars or 383 2 BBL. cars. The 383 N code 4 speed cars and all of the 383 Magnums in RT's were orange. A/C made no difference in color.

Maybe it was a very early car. You never know with Mopar. The rule is that all Magnum engines in E bodies were orange. There are odd, as in 1 of 1, exceptions to every rule. You could order a 330 hp 383 4 bbl. motor in an SE and it would be turquoise with the automatic; orange with the 4 speed. The car would have 383 four barrel on the fenders by the Challenger script.

Early car.... He was an exec. It was an RT/SE, and said 383 Magnum on the hood. The man bought the 1st 1969 300, and always had beautiful and fast stuff. The Challenger was the first non-RB motor he'd had since the late 50's.

It could have even been a promo car. More SE's were Burnt Orange than any other color. What color was theirs?

MMissile, I haven't seen the wire wheel covers in a while. Where they the ones with the black stop sign shaped center, that weigh a ton?

Yup. Think I have a few around here. I've always saved the stuff nobody liked. I knew most would become rare. After 42 years of mopar stuff.......I was right.
