I've bought a 69 adventurer that was to far gone to save, how ever it did have a hood emblem that appeared to be made for the hood, it's the dodge tri star. I've never seen one before and can't find much of anything about it any info would be great

Post a pic of it.

I believe that the Dodge fratzog hood piece was offered as part of the Adventurer
package....

That was what I was thinking. See them on guys trucks sometimes in pictures here and other sites.

Was on many Custom pkgs also. Not all Adventurers. I have/had about a dozen.

I know I removed one from a 1970 D-200 Adventurer... just another " " for ya!

I recognize it having been on 69 and 70 but don't think I've seen it on a 71. All share the same hood. Did they offer that on a 71?

This is the emblem on my 69 Adventurer. If you look close, you'll see that the factory installed it crooked.

69-71, only.
Way more rare than the emblem are the turn sig indicator lights on each front corner of the hood.

I have one on my base model 70. It does have upper side trim too. The hood that was on my 71 parts truck had the holes for it but that hood could have come off any truck. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the trucks that had it and the ones that didn't.

521 restorations have some items related to our trucks including the hood mounted turn signals.

I love that you said our trucks. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside.

My truck has the hood mounted turn signal indicators too.
