Previous
Found Items of the Month
We had two more items claimed last month. Yahoo!
The Coupe was a mid-year introduction for the Challenger
line in 1970, it continued through 1971. The group
code for these cars was A93. The A93 package was introduced
for the Challenger on February 25th, 1970 with production
beginning in early March of 1970. The A93 package
was available in the Barracuda line also, the earliest
A93 car I have seen ( so far ) is a Challenger, it
has a scheduled production date of March 13, 1970.
If you have an A93 car scheduled the same day, or
earlier, please let me know?
For our May item of the month we have a broadcast
sheet & several other papers for a Plum Crazy
1970 Challenger Coupe, the VIN is JH23B0B440325
If you own this car, all the paperwork I have for
it is yours for free with proof of ownership and proof
that the car still exists. (it has been on Ebay twice
in recent years) ;-)

| The goal of the 1970 Hamtramck
Registry is to provide an organization for the owners
and admirers of these cars. Through the registry we
will collect information to try and build an accurate
historical record of these cars and use it to help the
members when possible. This includes matching up found
broadcast sheets, other paperwork or serial numbered
components such as fender tags, engine blocks and transmissions.
Since Chrysler Corporation chose not to keep records
on these cars, creating a database to try and accurately
record the information on these cars for historical
purposes is one of the major functions of the Registry.

Please click the "REGISTER" link on the left,
download the Registration Form in either PDF, HTML or MS
Word format, fill out the form as completely as possible
and mail it to me at the address above.
If you have not done so already, I urge you
to search your car for broadcast sheets.
Sometimes there can be as many as 5 in one car,
so if you do find one, please keep looking, there could
be more. They do not always match the car they are found
in due to how the assembly lines at the plant were run.
If you find any sheets, please let me know if they match
or not. It is very common to find a sheet for a different
model of the same car. I have also heard of Challenger sheets
in Cuda's and vice versa.
Here are some places to look:
- Taped to the back side / top of the glove box insert.
- Under the front bucket seats in the springs
- Inside the bucket seat backs
- Under the rear seat bottom
- In the rear seat back.
- Under the package tray(speaker shelf)
- Under the carpet
Please check all these locations and let me
know what you find.
Thank you all,
Barry Washington at The 1970 Hamtramck Registry and The
Challenger T/A Registry
Special thanks to Johan Ronkainen for
hosting this site. We could not have done it without him.
