Previous Found Items of the Month

For our September IOTM we have a broadcast sheet for a 1970 Challenger Coupe in Panther Pink. I can now do 'color reports' for the 1970 E-bodies. (see the services section for more info) So I did a quick count of the Panther Pink A93 Challengers currently in the Hamtramck & LA registries and I have heard of only 6 so far with three different engine sizes.

They are:

JH23B - 2 known so far. (one has been parted out)
JH23C - 1 known so far. (it has been parted out)
JH23G - 3 known so far.

Please keep in mind that these numbers can only go up as more data comes in, no one knows how many were actually made. If you have any information on one, please let me know? It would be nice to hear of one that is still all original, does anyone have one? For all owners & fans of factory FM3 cars be sure to visit as well.

This broadcast sheet is for one of the 318 cars, the VIN is JH23G0B282545 and it is free to the owner of the car with proof of legal ownership.

Thanks to Seth for finding it & turning it in!

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
