I thought that they were standard on and R/T or a Super Bee 68-70? They were automatically deleted if the car was headed for CA because of CAFE they required turndown tips. It would be noted on the buidsheet one way or the other! Kind of like wheellip moldings? Standard, but not on the window sticker or tag? Does anyone know fore certain?

By the looks of THIS PAGE on Andy440's site, looks to me like they were optional on the 70.

But on THIS PAGE it looks like standard on 69 R/T and Super Bee.

Andy's site has a ton of great info and pictures!

In 1970 the N42 - "chrome exhaust tips" were a $20.80 option on Coronet R/T and/or Super Bee according to the '70 Dodge Salesman's Pocket Guide (9/69 issue) at Hamtramck Historical.

I don't see that it says optional? Just that there is a code for it! There is a code weather it's optional or not. It is presented on that sheet as though it is an option?

It would seem that it was extra cost on Super Bee's, not available in California and standard only on Hemi equipped cars....

My understanding is the Bee Hood was a STD option and the Ram Charger was Option you could check off


I also beleive that the 150 swipe dash cluster was a Std option and the Rallye dash was a checked off option as well...

Also... looking at n96 option it says not avalible with auto... I have a auto car with a N96 HOOD and a N96 code on fender tag...

Ramcharger Hood and Rallye IP were both extra cost options on the R/T. Automatic SPEED CONTROL was not available with the Ramchager Hood, no transmission restrictions.

Also, in an R/T when you ordered the Rally IP you got a Tach/Clock combo (tic/toc tach)... but you could order just a tach OR clock (or nothing) with the Standard IP (150mph sweep). Hope this helps... Dave

No that means Standard on Hemi cars except California Hemi cars. My California R/T 440 and my 70 Superbee 440+6 both have tips on the fender tag.

There a lot of wives tales about Chrome Tips and "California cars".

Another thing, what defines a "California car". N95 or sold new in California?? Or are those one in the same 100% of the time??

Do some other states/areas get N95 (like Denver area)?

Why would a Denver car be coded N95?

I was more curious as to why that calls out Hemi cars vs. 70 California (N95) E bodies with a hemi or 440+6 got turn downs.

I thought Denver had/has emission reg similar to California. They have a smog situation like SoCal. But don't know the time period on that.

I didn't want to make the assumption that N95 was only for California sold vehicles. Or L.A. plant built vehicles.

Well my three California Challengers are all built in Hamtrack

JS23V w/ N96
JS23R

They all have N95 so they all do not have N42

No disputing that. I also remember double taking at Pete Haldiman's old FC7 70 Hemi Challenger with turn downs (where's that car now).

I just hear/see a lot of bench race talk about ALL California car not getting tips or ALL LA built cars getting N95.

Well that's just silliness since 340, 383 and 440 cars got tips.

For 1970

CHALLENGER
N95 - Evaporative Control System - required on all cars registered in the State of California N.A. otherwise .......... $37.85
N97 - Noise Reduction Package - required on all cars registered in the state of California equipped with 440-6 engines or 426 Hemi .......... N.C.

CHARGER
N42 - EXHAUST Bright Tips (N.A. California) R/T only .......... $20.80
N95 - Evaporative Control System - required on all cars registered in the State of California N.A. otherwise .......... $37.85
N97 - Noise Reduction Package - required on all cars registered in the state of California equipped with 383-4 or 440 engines .......... N.C.

CORONET
N42 - EXHAUST Bright Tips (N.A. California) Super Bee & R/T only .......... $20.80
N95 - Evaporative Control System - required on all cars registered in the State of California N.A. otherwise .......... $37.85
N97 - Noise Reduction Package - required on all cars registered in the state of California equipped with 383-4 or 440 engines .......... N.C.

DART
N95 - Evaporative Control System - required on all cars registered in the State of California N.A. otherwise .......... $37.85

POLARA & MONACO
N95 - Evaporative Control System - required on all cars registered in the State of California N.A. otherwise .......... $37.85

This info is taken trom the 1970 Dodge Pocket Salesman's Guide posted on Hamtramck Historical.
Does anyone have the '70 PLYMOUTH version? It would be great to see it posted also.

Although not written in stone, here's my take:
N95 - for any car destined to be "SOLD" new in California, I'm sure some cars with N95 were SOLD new in other states due to dealer trades & sales bank cars that were not in demand in California. Any ordered car that was delivered NEW in the State of California should have N95. N95 concerned the fuel system: fuel tank venting, gas caps, carburetors, etc..

N97 - Noise reduction was accieved in different ways on different body platforms, again California "only".
E-body - eliminate N42 "bright exhaust tips" from 440-6 & Hemi cars.
B-body - addition of resonators on 383-4 & 440 cars. These are the same resonators found "stock" on Hemi cars.

N42 - According to the "pocket guide" none for California in:
440-6 & Hemi Challenger R/Ts
383-4, 440-6 & Hemi Super Bees
440-4, 440-6 & Hemi Charger R/Ts & Coronet R/Ts

BUT

There are exceptions, I own a LA assembled 440-6 4-spd GTX; fender tag reads: N41 N42 N85 N95 N96 N97 or is that a Plymouth thing?
