It's a 70 so no callout on the shaker scoop. Even if you ordered the RAIV. Pontiac was always very good about their badges and callouts. I guess it just fell through the cracks. |

There was no RPO that allowed you to delete the Charger Super Bee Hood Decal/Hood Blackout for the 1971 model (same for the Charger and Challenger R/T). Guess it was left off during the restoration. |

The stripes (Dodge called them Body Side Stripes) could be deleted |

New for 1971 was the 340 Magnum option; Dodge's effort to offer an insurable muscle car. Plymouth did the same thing with the Road Runner. It was a $46 option and replaced the standard 383/300 HP engine. One of the few engines in 1971 that was still high compression (10.3 to 1) |

Another change for 1971 B Body Chrysler cars; No more standard 15" tires when you ordered the Hemi. You got G70x14 RWL tires with G60x15 RWL optional. F70x14 RWL for the 340 and 383 . . . G70x14 RWL for the 440+6 and Hemi |

I always found it puzzling that for the 1970 GM mid-size models both Pontiac and Buick offered optional 60 series 15" tires while Oldsmobile and Chevrolet did not. |

Something interesting about the 1971 Boss 351 - It's the only Ford high performance engine (1968+) that doesn't use an AIR pump to meet emissions. |

The narrow island between Manhattan and Queens is known as Roosevelt Island, and features a quiet neighborhood and park. But in the early 1900s, architects wanted to turn the island into a civic center. https://i.postimg.cc/MKvG69J0/BB15XTJR.jpg |

Times Square is one of the world's top tourist attractions, but in the 1970s, the famous location was crime-ridden. To revitalize Times Square, one designer proposed an eccentric tower. https://i.postimg.cc/Jnr19qQk/BB15XMDd.jpg |

Trafalgar Square in London is known for its tower and fountains, but at the time of its construction, architects proposed building a pyramid in its place. https://i.postimg.cc/Dw3396vw/BB15XSuA.jpg |

In the '90s, there were plans to turn the Golden Gate Bridge into a desalination station affixed with silo-like structures. |

In Downtown Los Angeles, the City Hall stands tall, but architect Frank Lloyd Wright had a grander plan for the area. https://i.postimg.cc/BQ0GyNQQ/BB15XMEK.jpg Wright's idea for a civic center had 500-foot-wide walkways, terraces, rooftop gardens, and elaborate architecture. |
