70/1 Cuda and Challenger headlight brackets same?
 
Any of you mopar experts know if the headlight brackets for the cuda and the challenger are the same for 70 & 71?

I am thinking that they are based on my reading of the 2300 page 70-71 parts catalog.

The bracket is reproduced by AMD for a 71 cuda, the headlight buckets bolt into that followed by headlights, headlight rings, then surrounded by headlight bezels.

Thanks

Eric

Eric the 70-71 Challenger might be the same, but the Cuda has to be different because in 70 there were 2 headlights and in 71 there were 4 headlights. If your working on a cuda get a hold of Larry Hill his car was a 71 a few years ago.

Thanks frank I am working on my 1970 challenger and know that the 71 repro cuda part has the 4 headlight bracket(2 per side) and am having a hard time finding them for the challenger...but the 71 cuda part is remade.it might just fit on my challenger....Stephens in Alabama is looking to see in their huge boneyard if they have a 70 challenger one.

Eric Have you tried Halls Auto in Scituate RI? Lots of Mopars from years back to present.

I don't know if they are the same, you would think they would interchange.

Thanks for the lead. I did find a pair of the headlight brackets on Ebay down in Tennessee, and I learned that the Cuda parts are quite different than the Challenger.
