Rare Hood emblem
Rare Hood emblem
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

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

Re: Rare Hood emblem
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?

So what's wrong with setting beneath a single pull string incandescent light bulb writing angry letters?

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

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

Re: Rare Hood emblem
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.
