For the hemi hardtops we have 5 listed, still missing 9 cars, for the 440 6 pak converts we have 9 of the 16 listed, so still missing 7 cars, just remembered a purple 6pak convert from Rockford Ill with very low miles, white gut with auto on the column owned by Mopar 5150 now, of those 16 I think that is for US, not aware of any in Canada or sent overseas. if possible include the options if you remember them, Ramcharger hood, rally dash, console ect. it does seem most did not have the Ramcharger hood, interesting to see what others think on that. Where are those other 9 Hemi cars and 7 440 6 pak converts ? it seems the cars brought up so far no one knows where they are today.

Could be in the Brothers collection, seems like they have one or more, of everything.
Just an amazing collection of vehicles in their possession.

on the HTs I know of 5 out of my head.
Two in fc7 (one is a canadian car with blk top, the other one a non v-roof car), two in FJ5 (one with white topt&int, the other black top&int) as well as the EF8 green car that was a survivor for a long time till it got restored about 10 years ago.

Thanks for sharing. That is the first Six Pack 70 Coronet R/T convertible I think I've ever seen in my life. Very cool. Is it me or does it seem the majority of the 70 R/Ts seem to have the standard bulge hood? I would think the higher class of car over the Bee. That you would see more Ramcharger hoods.


The guy that had the purple Rt 6 pack convert car with the Ramcharger hood that was in my town was preordered, with the specific options he wanted, and was paid for in full on the order date. He told me it was difficult to get the Ramcharger hood on the 6 pack converts. From the way I understood how he told me the story, the dealer had top put in a special request and the car order had to include full payment to get the Ramcharger hood. I spent a lot of time around that car back in the day, he was running a dirt track car I was pulling wrenches on that was parked next to the RT convert. The guy had a pretty amazing collection, he had 3 or 4 Mopars (but not all performance era cars) in his collection he had bought new.

I added a photo of the car, interior is black. It was with the same owner in Wyoming since the early ‘80s. My understanding is he was the second owner of the car.

To the best of my knowledge it is a known car. Several people have mentioned the car in the past. Im guessing its in some collection now. Ive not seen or heard about it in years

But Yes, hemi , console auto. blk interior

Hood scoop emblems were from a Challenger hood I think, said 426 Hemi ( a mild custom touch for the day ) I looked at it back mid to late 80s time frame . I wanted that car BAD. But 10k was every dime I had . He was rock solid firm at $12k Or buy both it and a hemi 4spd 1969 Charger for $22k for the pair . I tried to get a buddy of mine to buy the charger for the $12k but he wouldnt bite

Rick Smits bought it and had it for a while. It was sold to some collector in NY area. Im told said collector got into tax trouble and all the cars were sold. And I have no idea where it is today

Busted using a pet store he owned for a gambling front, this car must be one of the 2 known Lime cars or would this be a 3rd one ? met Joe at the Mopar nats years ago, he had 4 hemi cars there, orange Daytona, 68 B5 GTX convert, a black 70 RR and a black 70 GTX. He also had a purple 440 +6 RR convert that was in Mopar collectors guide a long time ago, he was a very big man and was chain smoking the whole time I was there, he was friendly, Passed away awhile ago.

At one time, there was a black four speed V code convertible RT in the Westchester/Putnam County NY area. Was an ordered car. It was for sale and came with NOS quarter panels (!) and other good parts. Was late 1980s/early 1990s. Never seen again since.

Sounds like a great car, do you recall if it had a Ramcharger hood ?
