Guess what the 10,000th 1970 Hamtramck car will be?
« on: August 22, 2010 - 01:26:48 PM »
Hey gang,
The 1970 Hamtramck Registry is aproaching 10,000 cars, we are at 9940 right now. 9940 down, only about 333,430 more to go.  :cheers:

Any guesses on what the 10,000th car will be?  :dunno:

4-door Valiant? Cuda 340? Broadcast sheet found in another car? Or?


I will be able to offer color reports for known cars / combinations soon for cars made at both the Hamtramck & LA plants, likely within a month unless someone buys my house first.

Thanks to everyone that has helped out along the way.  :wave:

I'll put in a guess for a 318 Charger.

Well, choices are Valiant, Duster, Barracuda & Challenger models for 1970 Hamtramck cars.

(1970 Chargers were all from the St. Louis plant.)

Assuming of course that I have not heard of it before. Only one way to find out.......  :wave:

In that case I'll go with a 6-banger Valiant.

When did they quit making Chargers in Hamtramck?

I'll keep any eye out for it.  :wave:

Dan Pausch sent the email that had car 10,000 in it, it is a black 440-6 Cuda with an automatic on the column & a bench seat with a black interior.

Thanks Dan!

With the numbers sent in last night & this morning I am now at 10,017. Thanks to CC.com member Ty for sending some data he had collected as well.

11,000 is the next goal, we went from 9K to 10K in less than a year.  :cheers:
