72 Charger roof swap question??

[dragon84]

can I cut and weld in a 1973/74 charger roof panel onto a 1972 charger?  I'm not sure if the bdy lines are the same.

Thanks

Roof itself goes between driprail and C pillar. If you find the factory welding points, will be able to remove the lead and drill the welding points, and remove the skin as a complete piece without cut really... nothing to do with quarter. Is the same piece I think even for 2 doors Plymouths from 71 to 74s

Is a job what needs patiente but the best way to do it.

Harlow ( a member here ) made it on his former 68 ( or 69 ) Satellite. Similar job and panel extension than 3rd gens

the 3rd gens roof don't get that low at C pillar... they run from drip rail height on a straight line up to rear glass. When you remove the rear glass will find the overlap area on quarter and roof skins

So all 3rd Gen roofs are shaped the same then?

confirmed... on Catalog R ( Satellites ) and W ( Coronet/Charger ) 21, 23 and 29 ( all two doors ) shows only one PN: 3445833
