It's a trim option for the interior and exterior, the most notable being leather interior surfaces and a smaller rear window. However, the SE was its own bodystyle, so there could not be ragtop. Some people with leather Challenger ragtops sometimes think they have an SE, but they don't. Likewise, there was an option package (A63?) that consisted of much of the SE trim and was available on the R/T hardtops and ragtops.

The Challenger R/T-SE had a "formal roof" with a fiberglass plug that contained a smaller rear window. It also came with a leather interior and ceiling console. It had it's own VIN sequence that differentiated it from the regular Challengers: JS23 was an R/T hardtop, JS27 was an R/T convertible and JS29 was an R/T-SE hardtop. 442W30 is correct, there was never an R/T-SE convertible built. You could order an R/T convertible with the leather interior, but that did not make it an R/T-SE.

If you want to know about R/T-SE Chargers, I can tell you a whole bunch more about them

That tag belongs to a plain-Jane, green, 318-powered 1970 Challenger hardtop. I hope it doesn't match your car's VIN.

I owned a pair '70 of RT/SE's. A plum crazy Challenger and a green Charger. Still have the blue & yellow California vanity plate that says 70 RT SE
