I am looking at a 1970 Roadrunner and got a question about one of the codes on the fender tag. It is an all "black velvet" (TX9) car, but it has a code of: V6W, which comes up as a "Side Stripe - White" description. Is it refereing to the dust trail? I thought those were always a "gold" color?

Also, I noticed in the photos of the interior that the steering wheel had a chrome horn bar on the inside, close to the grip of the wheel with the RR emblem in the center hub. I've seen other RR steering wheels that that just had a center hub horn instead with the RR emblem in the center. Where both versions available in the 1970 RR?

Lastly, is the air cleaner cover for a 6-pack motor supposed to have a decal that reads: "440 SIX BARREL" or "Coyote Duster?" Again, I've seen both decals in photos of 440-6 motors and wasn't sure if one version or both were correct for a 1970 Roadrunner.

Thanks in advance for your help.
 
My book shows "white sport stripes longitudinal tape". I am not familiar with 70's, but on 69's you could a thin pinstripe high on the body line. I wonder if this would be the same.
 
I think with a air grabber hood it would have both air cleaner decals,without just the 440 six barrel.The Coyote Duster was only on the air grabber cars.

There were a couple of steering wheels available. Check out the link to Hamtramck Historical http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/DealershipDataBook/1970/70_Belevedere0026.jpg
