No the area around the back windows is completely different.

the roofs are the same 71-74 Dodge or Plymouth. The quarter panels are different, and it uses the same back window, charger or satellite

Maybe the skin. Also you cannot use the inside roof trim from a 74 in a 72, they're not the same.

You might be right, I bet there is something different with the structure. When did they change the number of headliner bows? The trim is still different for some reason.
I'll go back to tinkering with E's and A's

Yeah I hear you. That car puzzles me. One. it's not the factory dana, it's a Strange dana. Two it's not a factory air grabber car, there's no hole in the firewall for the hoses. Three. It has disc brakes on it, but it's factory drums. It didn't come with louvers or a console and there is no pic of the VIN or fender tag. Plus there's no shots of the underneath to see if it has boxed in springs or not.I think it's a 383 car.
