Does this help? I've always wondered if the 71s had the Plymouth on the decklid. I only remember seeing 72s.

Nice find jimbob! RT Specialties has been a life saver for small parts.

no purchase necessary

Yes. Just pull the spring away from the ball end and voila!

or this...

Maybe this will help...

pretty grainy shot from FSM but thought it may help. This shot is for 10-inch rear drums.

here is a shot of the little bugger installed...

fingers/spreaders to hold it in place

I plucked one from my car for you to reference...

1004 - Double Contact Bayonet (BA15d) Base

71 and 72 are the same. 73 and 74 had a different foot. The later versions had a wider mounting screw spacing.

Wow that is a rare photo! Check out those door handles. Quarters look a bit like a cross between 70-71 Torino and 2nd generation Barracuda.

Seems like someone recently suggested a shop that restored aluminum trim. Anyone ever used King of Trim in San Diego?

Interesting that Mr. Herlitz preferred the 72 rear bumper over the 71. I tend to agree though I own a 71. I am curious what rear window design he had in mind to differ from the dodge version that went into production.
