I need some info on this. Can you take a 1971 Challenger, and dress it up as a 1970? Now, Year One sell's '70 reproduction taillights, and '70 grille's can be bought from Ebay and such. I know you can remove a '71 Dash and replace it with a brand new repro '70 dash (www.justdashes.com). As for the gills on the rear panel's, Im not sure If they can be replaced, can they or not? Any thoughts?

Changing front and rear lights from model year to model year gets asked about all the time on here. Have a good look through the bodywork section.

Usually people are asking about changing the 72-74 front to a 70-71 and in fact this is much harder than what you are trying to do. The 70 and 71 swap is an easy bolt it up deal.

Did you go through with the conversion? If you do - and want to get rid of those rear fender "gills" you mentioned I'm interested & you can reach me anytime via e-mail.
