No, but these are not OEM. They are Vintage Air and look pretty clean. WYSIWYG

For my 73 charger, i ordered Vintage air part number 49057-vul and they fit like a charm.

Thanks for replying. As a matter of fact, that is the side that i need. What is the condition of the housing and what are you asking?

Hi all, I’m sure this isn’t a new topic but since the tail light housings for the 73 Charger are near impossible to find, has anyone seen a how to article on repairs to the plastic housing with chunks of it missing? Would milling ABS plastic to shape and Epoxy/welding it in place work? Thanks in...

Solved!! After searching the car for something that was hitting on hard acceleration, I stumbled across bright metal on the tips of the radiator fan. The motor would twist just enough that the fan would hit the shroud. Opened up the fan shroud another 1/2 inch and problem solved. I swear the...

Good to know. I’ll test that ‘cause I’m always up for a test drive…….

A real 20 ft pic ;-)

Thanks for the response, what would be your price for a pair of good used hinges?

Hi all, I’m happy to find this great resource of information. Just picked up my first Dodge, a 1973 Banana Yellow hardtop Charger with a 318 and auto trans. It’s an older restoration and needs a ton of TLC but it looks good from 20 feet. Plan to visit this forum pretty often.

Hi guys, looking for a pair of hood hinge springs for a 1973 Charger with a standard hood or a source for new replacement springs. Hinges look good and tired of using a stick. Thanks so much
