Missing My 70 Challenger RT-Help!
« on: March 29, 2017 - 07:11:05 PM »
Needle in a haystack, I know, but seeking one of my 7 Challengers I let slip away in 1987-88.  I lived in Peoria, Illinois, listed it in a national publishing called Old Car Book and a locator from the northeast (Vermont?) called, flew in, bought it and headed back driving it. From there, I never knew. Can't remember his name.  Records gone.  It was a 1970, numbers matching 440 Magnum RT, auto, AC, EF8 green, green interior, 6 way drivers seat, 33,000 actual miles at the time.  JS23U0B...the last 6 digits have been lost. We all have that sale we regret.  This one is mine and it haunts me.  I've tried every avenue and hit brick walls.  Police, DMV, Insurance that always covered it (State Farm), bank I had car loan from, etc.  Truthfully, I'd probably not buy it back even if it were offered.  Today's prices have gotten ridiculous.  I merely want to know if she lived and has been preserved. From there, who knows.  Illinois License plate in the mid 80's was XS7585.  This is a long shot, but here goes...

Any help or hints appreciated.  I have a few other pics.

Do not know how your state is but here I was able to go down to the revenue dept where you usually renew tags and I gave them my old tag info and they was able to give me the complete VIN . Won't get you all the way there but it will help
