My burning 1970 Charger question (and 71's too)

[Ghoste]

You can tell what my day is like when this is the most important thing on my plate but...
In the fastback Chargers when you turn the headlights on there is a light on the dash to tell you the headlight buckets are rotating open and locked.  Is there a similar indicator in the 70's?  71's as well for that matter.

[1BAD68]

not on the 70 model but I wouldn't know about the 71

[Ghoste]

Thanks.

First gens only from what I remember.

On my 70 you can hear the doors slamming up and down.....KERFLUNK-BAM.

correct

and you wonder why the little plastic gear inside the headlight motor is always broken, huh?

[RTDaddy]

Not on 70,s or 71's.  Have one of each.

You should visit your physician to get that burning thing checked out.

Not such a bad idea because this is only one symptom of a much larger and costlier disease.

Probably why they ditched the light, they thought "naaaah this works fine no light heeded"

[twenty mike mike]

I'd forgotten about that light. I really liked it, since it had a retractable landing gear look and feel about it.

[Dino]

What light is that?

[twenty mike mike]

This one.

[A383Wing]

66 & 67 cluster lights...these are the only bulbs in the dash

Left & right are turn indicators, the large red one in center is "Lamps Not Locked" light for rotating motors, the smaller red one in the middle is high beam indicator

[Dino]

Cool!  Never knew that.   

[70moparman]

Interesting ~ I didn't know either...

[Ghoste]

The 1st gens have a lot of cool features. 

[70moparman]

The big-ass back seat area / rumpus room comes to mind...
