I'd like to know where the one my dad had went. Don't know the VIN but it was a executive lease from Chrysler. Plum Crazy, white side stripe, hood blackout, power windows, black interior, Ralley wheels, Hemi, 3.55 Dana, auto. I have some colorful history in it. As a 16 year old who took my drivers test in it I was in heaven.

My mistake, 3.54 track pac Dana. My dad let me create the order. I had selected 4.10, 4 speed which he nixed. It was also ordered with a luggage rack and shaker which did not show up with the car

there are NO 3.54 DANA automatic cars it was not an orderable rear axle - the 4.10 DANA was an OPTION with 440/440+6/HEMI automatics 1969-1971.

there are an additional 4 - 1970 HEMI Challenger R/T SEs shipped new to Canada Y07. (additional EXPORT Y09 orders ??)

I have info on 43 of the 63 HEMI R/T SEs - with good tag info on about half - 4 are FC7 automatics (none have power windows), 2 also have the 4.10 DANA.

As I remember you could order a Track-Pak 3.54, and a Super Track-Pak 4.10. I believe it was option A-33? Could be wrong though as it was also ordered with a luggage rack and shaker. Came w/o the rack or shaker. Came with the standard R/T hood with the blackout treatment. It also definitely had power windows. This car existed. My dad was a stylist at Chrysler. He worked with John Herlitz who I believe had a Black Hemi Cuda convertible that year as a lease also.

Doug,
Track Pak and Super Track Pak are associated with the manual transmission.

With an automatic you would be ordering High Performance Axle Package (3.55 Mopar 8 3/4) or Super High Performance Axle Package (4.10 Dana 9 3/4)

there was/is a guy from the Toledo Ohio area that had 5 HEMI R/T SEs 15-20 years ago, don't know if they're still there.

FJ5 car
FC7 4-spd car painted TX9 black (IIRC "viperakron" built this car & raced in the Supercar Showdown series in the late-'80s)
TX9 black car painted FC7
(EF8 or FF4) green 4-spd car painted FY1 yellow
FY1 (w/green top & interior) car painted green ("viperakron" may have owned this one also?)

& he also had the cut-up/parted remains of another FC7 HEMI R/T SE car (hopefully this wasn't "dvw" Dad's exec. car, but it's from the neighborhood)

Don't judge the tag condition with the condition of the car...It is super solid B5, V1W, 3.55 This car was purchased from the original owner in 1975 (a school teacher from Norfolk, Va.) with 42,000 miles. It has been stored since. The current owner recently passed away and the car's future is in limbo at present. I first looked at the car around 1981 when the engine and trans were still in place. A running and driving car at that time needing only detailing.
