1970 Hamtramck Registry. Got "0B"?
Posted: 18 Sep 2004 2:34Hello gang,
I have been keeping track of Challenger T/As and AAR Cudas for most of a decade now, but I started keeping track of other 1970 cars built at Hamtramck in 1970 about a year ago as well. So far, I have over 3000 cars entered into the data base, let me see if I can cut and paste a page, it will save me some typing here...............
1970 Hamtramck Registry
The registry for all “0B” models, from 4-door Valiants, Dusters, Challengers and Barracuda models, all are accepted regardless of condition or engine size. VIN and code information from broadcast sheets, parts cars and parted cars is appreciated as well!
This Registry is a division of The Challenger T/A Registry P. O. Box 9632
Ketchikan, AK. 99901 or online at www.challengertaregistry.com and is run by Barry Washington.
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.
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.
That worked nicely! If you would like to register, send me an email at sixpak340@att.net and I can either attach the forms to a reply or mail them to you as you wish. There is no cost involved, but I will only contact you after you register if I hear of an item or some previous owner history for your particular car. Personal information like names, adresses, phone numbers, email addresses and so on is NEVER given out to anyone.
If anyone has any questions, please let me know, I will answer them if I can.
T/Ake care,
Barry Washington
