I have recently received a few PMs from other members. Either because of the new board software, or the way my profile is configured, I no longer get email notifications that I have PMs waiting. Because I am going back to rarely visits status, please don't think me a jerk that is ignoring you - I just don't know that I have an unread PM waiting. A better way to contact me is via email ==>> stevednerd <at> aol <dot> com (aol?? Yes, color me a luddite who doesn't change his email address as often as he changes his underwear.)
Down to just a blue car now.

There is one episode with another 70 Challenger R/T convertible. It is lime green with white top stripe interior, 15X7 rallies, polyglas tires with tire size. Has rocker mouldings, body side mouldings, front bumper guards, dual painted mirrors, painted gas cap, argent grill with R/T emblems on both fenders and the grille, no exh tips, and no moulding across the rear edge of the hood. They show it pretty good from the outside under street lights several times, can't tell interior details other than a rim blow wheel.
With all these great pictures I hate to be greedy but let's see this other mod squad Challenger R/T convertible. OK, first time I saw this I flew out of the chair, it looks,great on screen. Butthese are pictures of the TV screen so they are so great looking here, sorry for my low tech skills.

Still hitting the Beaver.
This is probably the ONLY thread on this board where you could get away with that reply...  Lots of cool old pics that I was too young to see...Thx to the whole lot of you guys...  I do remember a vert Barracuda on the Brady Bunch but only because of re-runs into the 80's...
...FAFO...

Reason is ask is there is a survivor six pack vert in Burbank/NoHo/East Valley area that's from that area all its life. Same white interior, white top. But I can't remember if it was a side molding car or not.

Well I cannot make out the hood emblems. The only thing I could see inside is a rim blow wheel. Can't tell if the seat is a bench or buckets, never see them shift the car. Seems like and automatic. Seems like they actually use the sound of the actual car moving, not overdub sounds. They do a lot of outdoor driving in all episodes.
Car definitely has no chrome tips, dual painted mirrors, rocker trim and side moulding. That and the colors should make it darn close to a one of one car.
Can you go check out that survivor for the options it has? Fender tag?
I need to watch it again to see if there is a skid plate K-member in there. Im pretty sure a 70 RT with turndowns would make it an CA emissions Hemi or 6-pack car. I know 383's CA emissions got tips. I think 440-4bbl did too. It's not a Hemi car. Only sublime one was that Canadian one, right? So it does seem like a six pack.

The license number on the mod squad lime green R/T convertible is 360 ANK. Pretty neat it's a 6 pack. The show with the lime green convertible was dated January 12, 1971. That was 5 1/2 months after 1970 car production stopped. Car could have been damaged and repaired with tips deleted and a smooth valence installed?

This thread is SO cool! So may great photos & information. Back in 1989, my old business partner flew out to Los Angeles area to hunt musclecars - GTO's & Mopars. He bought 3 '69 Roadrunners - one of them was an F5 green column shift 383 RR that had supposedly been owned by actor Jackson Bostwyck. There was some documentation with the car - I believe it was legit. We sold it as soon as it got back to MI.
