How rare is the C5X option?

[magnum]

Just curious as mine has that option but rarely do I see it on other Chargers.

[magnum]

Sorry forgot to mention mine is a 69.

[Ghoste]

Rare.  I don't have numbers but the cloth seat inserts are not often seen.

[magnum]

Thanks ghoste, my car is numbers matching and has some cool options for a 318 car. My plan was a DMCL clone but i want it all original. Its Y3 vinal delete with the c5x interior trim.

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Out of over 2600 '69's registered I only have 47 registered with that option....pretty rare indeed.

For those that dont know what the C5X option is...

Black colored vinyl seats with black cloth inserts....

[chargerman69]

that's good to know, 69 charger that am looking at has the same seats then here's a Pic of them redone looks pretty mach the same

It's certainly not common thats for sure. I have only seen one other and it was a 69 RT Q5 black interior black vinyl top.

I have one in the barn.  Q5, 318, auto-console, interior light package, AM radio, no A/C, and a dealer installed vinyl top.  I always considererd it an oddball.

My car had it originally, my car is far from stock so I didn't re do them that way. I checked back a few years ago, and Legendary had some NOS cloth material...it was a lot of $$$$$ to have those made.

I'm sure I have more pics, but this is the only one I can find at the moment, look at the seat under the work bench.

Covers are exspensive! It will cost a grand from classic industries

[C5X DAYTONA]

My 69 Daytona is C5X hints the screen name.   Without going through the files. I think I have 6 Daytona's with C5X option. 

[Ghoste]

Which is interesting because of the tiny handful of cars I've seen with it, most or all were 500's.

 Cody  69BronzeT5 , has that trim in his charger too , i believe

[Ghoste]

I was thinking someone in the sales bank ordering department liked cloth seats.

Yep...my '69 has it too. T5 Copper, no top, black interior, C5X with the C21 buddy seat. Mine still has the original seat covers.

[69_500]

I believe from the top of my head that the first 4 of the 69 500's have this option. Then again they are all Hemi cars too.

[69rtse4spd]

Think I have a set of buckets like that in the loft when I stripped out a 69 years ago. 

[magnum]

My 69 Daytona is C5X hints the screen name.   Wigoing through the files. I think I have 6 Daytona's with C5X option. 

Must be a popular option with the rt/se 500's and Daytona's. When you order the covers there under those models

[dmann]

my old daytona had that option--probably why it had the correct buildsheet!

[Ghoste]

Thats why I'm wondering if someone doing the ordering for sales bank cars liked it.

You right.  Someone liked it personally. Or the guys that designed thought it needed more exposure. Or they needed to clean out the inventory becasue it was a dud.   

[TUFCAT]

Yep...my '69 has it too. T5 Copper, no top, black interior, C5X with the C21 buddy seat. Mine still has the original seat covers.

Cody how's the restoration going?  Its been a while how about an update.
