Those hood pins must have been an aftermarket addition. Only Daytona Chargers had the hood pins. </div></div>

Sure about that?

If it doesn't have the J45 code on the buildsheet, yes. It's a very easy Day-2 installation. I haven't seen a factory installed set on a 69 Charger in my travels. (Which may not mean much). If the broadcast says it is so, then it is so. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

I got the pic from the guy who runs the 1969 Charger Registry last week. I didn't realize the hood pins were such a curiosity but I dug out the email due to your comment. He says:

If searching existing cars, V8R is the Red tail stripe code.
L31 fender mounted turn signals were part of the SE pkg, does he remember them?
Ask if his had headrests, optional previous to but mandatory after Jan. 01/69.
J45 manual style Hood Pins were available for 69's but seldom seen (not push/turn style).
His didn't have a sunroof?

Best o' luck!

Appreciate it Pete. Will inquire when I see him tomorrow. I can tell you for sure the hood pins WERE push/turn style so they must have been aftermarket.

Correction, it had an auto Torqueflite. Yes on the L31 and headrests. No sunroof. If anyone has, or knows who has the car, he'd be happy to provide any history he has on the car for your records. For example, if you're wondering what happened to the oil pan, or the aftermarket A/C (on the side of Rt. 80 somewhere in Nebraska), Vinyl, tranny coolant lines, etc. PM me.

I don't know but he said it's coded on the tag.
