January 2020 |
No items were claimed in December
but yet another broadcast sheet came in for a Challenger
T/A, so it is now our first IOTM for 2020!
This one was found inside a bucket
seat back as so many are, the VIN on it is JH23J0B307308
This car has not been registered
before, but it had been reported by a registry member that
knew the owner, thanks Ricky!
When I contacted Ricky with the
news, he contacted his pal & the car had been sold,
so it evidently moved from Alabama to Michigan.
Does anyone know the current
owner?
As always, proof of legal ownership
& proof the car still exists will be required to claim
it.
Thanks for sending it in Paul!

No items were claimed in February.
Another broadcast sheet was
just sent in though, it is for a 1970 Challenger T/A, the
VIN on it is JH23J0B282565.
It was found in a Challenger
T/A that was a new one to me, so as of this writing we have
1,553 Challenger T/As recorded in the registry.
This one was also found inside
a bucket seat back as so many are, thankfully he also found
a sheet that matched his car. It is cool to see that the
VINs on the sheets are over 2,900 apart, the scheduled production
dates are 4 days apart & yet the cars were only 6 builds
apart on the assembly line.
Thanks for sending it in Michael!

For April, we have another broadcast
sheet for a 1970 Challenger T/A, the VIN on it is JH23J0B304231
I found it in a Challenger T/A
that the owner let me search back in 2006. It was found
inside a bucket seat back like so many are.
Thanks for letting me search
your car Ben!

For May, we have another broadcast
sheet for a 1970 Challenger. This one is for a 318 car in
a very cool combination. Its VIN is JH23G0B256933
It was found inside a bucket
seat of Challenger R/T with a 440-6 by a local restorer
and was hand delivered to the house in an AAR Cuda.
Dennis and Jeff, thank you!

Another broadcast sheet was
claimed in May!
Justin had also found this broadcast
sheet in his car, so he sent it in. It is for an early Challenger
in a very cool combination. This sheet has mouse damage,
but the full VIN would be JH23C0B100722.
Thanks for sending it in Justin!

For those attending Carlisle
this month for the 50 Year Reunion of the AARs and T/As,
we hope to see you soon!

ago, Doug handed in a broadcast sheet he found in his T/A
for a Challenger with a 318. The VIN on this sheet is JH23G0B299155

No items were claimed in July.
For those that were able to attend
Carlisle, it was great to see you!
While at Carlisle, I was very
happy to see a stunning 1970 Coronet 9 passenger station
wagon.
I enjoyed talking with the owner
& I noticed that he had found a matching broadcast sheet
for it.
He was not aware there could
be others though, so he allowed me to take a quick look.
I spotted another one under the
front bench seat in the springs, so working together we
were able to very carefully remove it.
We compared the VIN on it to
his car, and this sheet did not match. The VINs were very
close, both cars were ordered for the Sales Bank and both
cars were identical, option for option. Very cool to see!
The VIN on this sheet is WH46G0G194999
Thanks for the tour of your car
Ken!

September 2020 |
No items were claimed in August.
For our current IOTM, we have
another broadcast sheet. This one is for a 1969 Plymouth
GTX convertible, the VIN is RS27L9G215250
This one was found in a 1969
Road Runner convertible so it is very possible that the
two cars were very close on the assembly line.
Thanks for sending it in Joseph!

Another item was claimed in
