Ah....the fitness equipment industry.....now I know where to hit the goldmine to afford myself Vipers and v-code Cudas!  :bigsmile:

Nice family site....especially the one about the dogs. I hope you find a cure for Laci.

BarryT/A, what other Chrysler plants other than Hamtramck and Los Angeles produced E-bodies, if there were any?

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

E-bodies were produced at two plants for the 1970 model year, LA and Hamtramck.

From 1971-1974 they were all built at Hamtramck.

T/Ake care,

Interesting stuff! It's to bad they didn't keep better records of what they built back then.

It's not that. I believe there was some type of fire at some point and alot of records were lost forever by Chrysler.

It wass probably caused by the leaking passenger valve cover leaking on the headers while a car was leaving the plant.  :crying:  God I hate that!

I think if you order the "options and accessories" package from Galen this includes the workup in production numbers of your car with the options/acc's that it has. Tropical, did you order this as well?

See the Galen letter in this eBay auction (cool 3-spd R/T!!) and you can see it includes assessment of production number in respect to how it was equipped:

Maybe thats why its taking a long time with mine.... :dunno:

david

you could be right At the bottom of my letter it says " For more detailed production figures including sales Codes, ask for the  Option and Accessories report" I did not order that as I thought I ordered what I needed. :dupe:

I think you may be right. The description of the O &A may say it all. I'd like to think I could pin it down a little closer.

I will be more than happy to sign up my LA built Cuda when the registry is started. But, what I need now is a current 6-pack registry. Are there any?

Here are some of the better registries....

http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/links.shtml

I'm not aware of a 70 six pack regisrty... that doesn't it doesn't exist, just that I haven't found it yet.

I will post more info as soon as the site is up and running.  In the mean time, tell me a little more about your car.  What's the color, late or early build, shaker, 4 speed?  How long have you had it?

Just got off hte phone with GTS. A very nice woman answered these questions for me.

Q. Is there a way to tell if your car is 1 of 1 or 1 of 2000.
A. No.What we can give you is information hat may help you to narrow it down,but actual number do not exist

Q. What will the Options and Accessories report tell me.
A. It will tell you what options were available for your year and the percentage of cars in that year that got that option. This could be a place to start to narrow down the rarity of you car.

This one was for David..

Q. How long will it take to get the Options and Accessories Report.
A. I think I have some in stock I could send it out today.

Barry, thanks for what you do for FREE. I knew a long time ago that the 'registry' was a joke. I know that mine is one of 334 440 4-speeds built in '70, but narrowing it down to 'one of....' is impossible unless DC produces the microfilm to do more. :crying:
