1971 front Vin plate dash area question clarification

[moparlove]

Hello and new here. Looking to possibly look at buying a 1971 charger at some point but had a lingering question someone surely knows here. I found or seen some chargers where when you look through the front windshield area by the dash vin plate area, it appears that the dash frame is split into two sections. one that has the vin plate riveted to it then the next second section extends over towards the passenger side. Is that factory correct? It was awhile back, but I figured it wasn't factory. Can anyone have any pictures they can post of the 71 dash vin plate area? you can block out the vin.


Thanks,

Dash frame is one piece from side to side. It gets an insert over side to side to "frame" the windshield vents and speaker area. Maybe thats what makes you think is splitted in two halfs?
