Were you able to get a back end strip if it was a base line charger? 1970 Charger - Muscle Car Facts

That article fails to mention that one valid reason for the drop in sales for 1970 Chargers was the introduction of the all new Challenger.

Look through these '70 Charger trim levels to find the bumblebee stripe:

Uh oh, you’re not thinking of “twinning” with the Bee, are ya Dave? What are you gonna do when you call one to dinner and they both show up?

The only tail stripes I'm aware of on non-R/T cars were the "Bengal" Chargers sold in Cincinnati Ohio.

I thought there was a 500 stripe or was that only 69?

learn something new

IIRC all 69 500's were also R/T's.

Don't think 70 500's got the stripe, although if I ever end up with a 70 Charger or Coronet 500, I've thought about applying the 69 "500" stripe because I LOVE tail stripes.

Aftermarket add on. Some OG Muscle Cars came with a hood mounted tachometer option. Most notably the GTO and Firebird. Also the AMC Machine, and Buick GSX.

Ive never seen a charger with a outside hood tach.

Ive never seen a charger with a outside hood tach.

I think, you or a dealer could install it on any car.

 

[Charles Cook]

Dave Dave Dave, the tach goes on the inside of a Charger. Lol

No. Only R/T Charger had tail stripes available factory installed 68-70, as well as the 1969 500 and Daytona variations.
had to have a 440 or Hemi to get a tail stripe

For good reason!

Anyway, at your advanced age, would you even be able to see the bright needle much less read the numbers on a hood-mounted tach?
