When you ordered a 1971 Challenger R/T this was the only R/T callout on the car. If you ordered the shaker hood, you lost it. No other R/T emblems or callouts.



Little easier to see with the Performance Hood Treatment (RPO V21)



For $28.50 you could add the stripes on a Challenger R/T and plain (No R/T callout) for the any Challenger. The "side"gills" came standard with the R/T



Part of the R/T package was the blacked out rear panel area.

By 1971, Chrysler was in dire financial straits. The "bean counters" had taken over and were cutting costs any way they could. Saving a few dollars per car on badges/emblems would help the bottom line.
