Yea, chargers are different. I wonder if charger rocker moldings will fit on a 72.

idk, but there's a set of GTX moldings on ebay right now opening at 400 - i think i may look into getting the 70 cuda "gill" rockers...those are pretty cool and brand new ones are 250 - they are 71" long, so they should be close, i think

yowza...how's that work...maybe i must have read wrong cuz i thought the e's and 71-4 b's shared the same wheelbase, so the length wheelwell to wheelwell should be fairly close ????

nevermind on that, the cuda wheelbase is 7" shorter and the challenger's is 2" shorter...idk where i got the idea they had the same wheelbase...guess i'll just have to stick with my setup i have now of using ribbed rubber trim along the rockers...i'm afraid to leave em plain with all the rocks, salt, sand, etc. around here
