Let me explain why I am interested in knowing whether it's a R/T or not. I've been a MOPAR fan all my life. I've got a nice collection of MOPAR magazines, and over the years have read stories of people stumbling on to rare versions of MOPARS. As R/T's go there rare at least compared to base models. For instance you guys probably already know that out of the 76,000+ Challenger produce in 1970 only 13,000+ were R/T's.
So here I am reading about these stories in MOPAR magazines, and there happens to be a classic 1970 Challenger (my favorite year for the Challenger's) only a few miles from my house, and I did not know it until recently. That and it could be an R/T.
It's not about the value of the car to me at least, if I owned a R/T anything from Chrysler I'd never sell. It's the idea of owning an awesome piece of MOPAR history, the REAL DEAL. I prefer the R/T's over the base models. I liked the options the cars had. To me it's like finding a lost treasure, that's all.
Yes I know right now I can't afford to buy the Challenger, but I'm hoping within the next year to possibly change that. It doesn't appear the Challenger is going anywhere.
