- The only year you could get a Challenger with the A47 Special Edition (formal roof) was 1970. So why does this original survivor 1971 Challenger R/T have a formal roof?

Mark if you need an aftermarket Mopar wizard, and I know you and Tony are the OEM Mopar gods, but for aftermarket, consider reaching out to Steve Dulcich or Dave Freiburger from Roadkill / Roadkill Garage! Busy guys but they do a ton of Mopar stuff and most of their engine stuff involves aftermarket engine builds. worth a shot or even a phone call once in a while
Mark is wrong. in 1970 a Challenger RT/SE would be a JS29 code. In 1971 Dodge dropped the 29 (SE) series and the Formal Roof became an option A78 code. and the VIN code would be JS for an R/T. I wrote the book on Challengers and Barracuda's in the 1980's, and I sold parts to Tony.
Mark knows a ridiculous amount about classic Mopars, but Tony D'Agostino is like a walking supercomputer when it comes to what parts came on which car. They both grew up obsessing over VIN codes and - to be fair - that's where the money is for collectors. I remember Direct Connection engine parts before they morphed into Mopar Performance, but I get that Mark means 'non Mopar' suppliers when he talks about aftermarket parts.
Is that a crack in the spark plug boot at 22:43 or a seam? Another great video. I love these cars. especially the green convertable at 32:45.
PS: the scoops were standard on 1971 R/T's
mark puts puzzles together all stock ......give him a hp part or ask him to think outside the box and he colapses like jenga
Wasn’t the Christine car owned by the same guy who owned Muscle Car City down in Florida….I saw it there in the museum there a few years ago.
That purple looks awesome.
12:04……too bad the windshield got broken….when I redid my IROC..the painters broke the original windshield….it took a year to find the same year original glass…to keep the car completely perfect original
Isn't it just an eighties Camaro windshield? or is it different?
@@barrycuda3769 1990 IROC 1LE…unmolested, untouched all original 20,000 miles….was only getting the clear coat redone…paint shop decided to remove the glass….windshields are date coded….I went through 3 different parts cars…before we finally got a windshield “uninstalled” and usable
Mopar bulit a lot of odd cars and used left over parts at years end,
@@paulthesoundguy1 I repainted a 1985 Camaro Indy pace car once , as I recall , there's no need to take out the windshield .
@@barrycuda3769 I know….that’s the problem….
