AS one of the rarest of the Road Runner models and b-bodies in general, it's surprising to me that a registry like the A-12 one isn't on the web somewhere. Of course, it probably is, but I haven't found it! 
Ni!

Is there a B-body vert registry for ALL Mopars regardless of B-body model year convertibles?? That would make more sense than just road runners IMO. There were far fewer '68 and '69 GTX verts made but they share a lot of the same or similar components that would help if owners were to share knowledge and experiences with each other. And I'm sure the similarities hold true for ALL of the Dodge and Plymouth B-body verts.

No such thing. They made alot more A12 cars over the 2128 total 69 and 824 total 70 RR verts. I seem to know where most are.... 
3319 total A12 production
2952 RR ragtop production
= 367 more A12 cars made, not too big a spread

I thought my GTX had a few options but his was on the verge of a second tag  Anyone like to de-code it,  (my GTX has power discs, power steering, 4-speed, console, vinyl roof, hood stripes, tach, 8-track, wood grain steering wheel, tinted glass, stripe, road wheels, and the SPD was Dec 16, '68 (C16) in the LA assembly plant......check out his SPD in the St. Louis plant halfway across the country ) What a great chance meeting we had as he lives in Southern Ohio and has a summer home on the lake 15-minutes from me now. He drove the car up there that weekend for the first time hoping to find me to show me their GTX, he's really loves the car and that's why he's had it since he bought it in '69.

pfffttt....
RR convertibles are some of the most common B body convertibles out there.
They made more RR convertibles in one year (1969 - 2,128) than they did R/T convertibles in four ( 1,976 total 67-70).
Dime a dozen.  
Now that I've had some fun....I'm not aware of any specific registry for RR convertibles. But since they were built at the STL plant, I'd be interested in knowing about any that are still out there.
Seeking:
1969 St. Louis plant VINs, SPD, and VONs.
Over 2,000 thanks to you!

Very true. R/T ragtops are much more rare. I have had a 69 R/T vert, and plenty of 69 RR verts. R/T's are much harder to find.
I know where there is a 69 RT 4-sp Convert painted, ready to put back together. Yellow with a few options if I remember right.

GREAT SITE! 
OP was looking for a rr vert registry but it seems there's no registry for B-body convertibles and sounds like that would be a site that would have more interest and activity for all of the vert B-body models.
