Description
The Deck Filler Panel – 1970–1974 Dodge Challenger is a premium OE-style sheet metal restoration part manufactured by Auto Metal Direct and offered as an Official Mopar Licensed Restoration Product. Also commonly referred to as the Dutchman’s panel or trunk lid filler panel, this component installs between the rear window and the trunk lid, restoring the correct factory contour and structure at the rear deck area.
Designed specifically for 1970–1974 Dodge Challenger E-Body applications, this deck filler panel is stamped on all-new AMD tooling to replicate original factory dimensions, curvature, and body lines. Proper rear deck geometry is critical on E-Body muscle cars, as it directly affects trunk lid alignment, rear glass fitment, and quarter panel transitions. AMD’s precision stamping ensures accurate panel shape, correct edge profiles, and factory-style contours.
Manufactured from high-quality automotive-grade steel, this panel provides the strength and durability required for structural rear body repair. The stamping mirrors original ribbing and contour lines, allowing restorers to return rust-damaged or collision-compromised rear deck sections to factory specifications.
This panel is engineered for hardtop Challenger models. It can be adapted for convertible applications with modification, and installers should reference appropriate fitment resources prior to installation to verify application-specific requirements.
As a Mopar Licensed Restoration Product, this deck filler panel meets strict standards for accuracy and authenticity, making it ideal for stock restorations and factory-correct rebuilds.
