It's possible to install thumbwheel 70' on my challenger 71?

Any E-Body model should work, as long as you have the proper radio trim plate for it (the plastic faceplate on the right of the instrument cluster).

You also need the bracket to hang the back of the radio to the dash (I believe they're all the same for E-Bodies).
There may be several models for the radio trim plate depending on the model (AM, AM/FM, 8-track).
The 8-track is really rare, the bezel is even rarer.

The plate should look like this. Some are ribbed, some are textured black. Should be the same finish as the heater plate on the left of the dash.
