'77 Fender Badge?

[Mark H.]

I know this has likely been asked dozens of times, but...

Did any '77s come with the "Stingray" badge on the fenders?

I searched the archives and found a spirited discussion about it with no clear answer.

Thanx

The early 77's had no fender emblems. The "Stingray" was dropped after 1976. The anti theft switch was in the fender in early 77's .The anti theft switch was then moved to the keyswitch in the door and the crossflags were added to the fenders. All of the early ones I have seen, had the key switch and the crossflags together on the fender. The judging manual explains this in better detail with the vin numbers. Hope this helps.

Thanx.

Seems like every time I have one of these questions, I'm away from my garage and all my NCRS stuff.

I owned s/n 406370 , a very original car, it had no flags and had the alarm key receptacle mounted on the fender. Not sure what month they started mounting the fender flags.
