Hi fellow C-body owners,

Finally I see some armrests in GOLD ! on EB.

MOPAR 1966-70 B-Body 1966-69 C-Body 13" FRONT Armrest Pads - GOLD 630 | eBay

Will these armrests fit on my 1971 Newport ?
They are listed as 66 to 69 C-body but I think they are used in 71 models too...
Am I right ?

Yes I believe they are the same. In fact I've sold several C body arm rest over the years to guys working on B body cars. Pretty sure they are the same in this era. I had a guy with a 66-67 Coronet contact me & I measured my C body ones I had & they where the same. He contacted me after he got them & said they fit perfect

A bodies also they are corporate, the chrome surround also changes side and what was the bottom can be a better looking top on the opposite door.

Yes, should also be the same in 1971 Chrysler

The difference may just be the color.

I thought late 60's early 70's C bodies had longer armrests than A/B bodies ... matter of fact I have some long ones but don't know what years/models take the long ones. I think they came off our old 68 New Yorker.

True, regular B-Bodies (Coronet, Satellite) only had 9.5" pads up front while the Dodge Charger had the same 13" pads in front doors as had the C-Bodies.
