These 3rd gen chargers seem to have a lot of different features with the side window area, is there certain ones that are specific to each year?  Or model/edition?

Example like the rear side window on a 71 is a lot different than a 74 charger.

Anyone ever make a thread with pictures of all the different side windows?

Thx

I had '71 and '73 side glass in my spares. The glass was exactly the same size and shape with the same number and sizes of holes. The tint was different between the two years. I had a member from I think it was Jersey come down to pick up a '73 SE hood and gave him the '73 side glass when he said he was having trouble finding a good piece.

See that they change?  I mean the body lines of that rear window, seem to change from each year 71-74 and also what edition of the car it is.

Sorry. I get the award for dumbassery for that one. I didn't read carefully enough to realize you said rear. There definitely were different designs. I've seen at least 3 different. The roll-up in my '71, the fixed glass in the '71 coupe parts car I had, and the fixed glass in the '73 SE parts car I had.

What I was wondering is if there is a thread that shows pictures of all the different rear side window/body lines,  it seems like a small thing to change but it makes a big difference in the profile of the cars.
