I'm requesting help in recovering my 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T that was stolen from my property on Saturday April 27th or early April 28th. The Vin for my car is JS23N0E129586. The car is painted dark blue (B5 blue I think) with a gray/brown pinstripe and is wearing Keystone mag wheels, with P245 60 R15 Challenger brand tires in back and Goodyear Eagle GT II tires in front. The Eagle GT II's are badly dry rotted with metal being exposed on the treads by large cracks in the rubber. The car has front disc brakes (these are not original) with a drum brake master cylinder. The rear drums are painted the same blue color as the car. The car was originally EF8 dark green metallic from the factory and there is still plenty of green paint on the car. The car has a black interior. The seats are in very good shape except for a rip close to the door of the driver side seat. The dash is a '71 or later dash and has several large cracks in it. The steering wheel is a '72 and up model with the two spokes with three holes in each. The steering wheel is also rapped in vinyl. The steering column and the metal parts below the dash are also painted blue and the vinyl framing around the instrument cluster is mismatched, the piece nearest the door is a '70 piece and the other piece is '71 and up. The car also has a small red oil pressure warning light near the ash tray and a confederate flag sticker in the ash tray. The driver side floor mat is tore up and the black carpet is sun faded. The car also has a Sun Super Tach II attached via a hose clamp to the steering wheel. The drive train consists of a 440 magnum with an 800 cfm Elderbrock carb. The carb is and looks fairly new and the engine is clean and nicely painted orange with Mopar performance aluminum valve covers. The engine also had an aluminum Mopar Performance water pump and water pump housing and the crank and water pump pulleys were both chrome. The engine had a 7 blade clutch fan for cooling which I have been told is rare. The engine has 452 heads. The transmission is an 18 spline Hemi 4sp. The intake is Elderbrock performer rpm. Engine is equipped with a somewhat corroded set of Ceramic coated TTI headers. The engine is coded F440 9-12 HP and is a heavy connecting rod motor (6 pack type). The car has small patch panels welded into the rear quarter panels and rust around the back window. The back window rust had been fixed before and had come back and the previous owner had tried to keep the paint from bubbling with clear silicon. There is also rust bubbling through in the quarters in front of the rear tires and an area on the passenger door rocker panel that appears to have some bondo. There is also a Christian Fish on the trunk lid. I would say the car as a whole is a condition 2 car. The car has air shocks with a hole cut in the trunk pan for the air nozzle. I'm enclosing a couple of pictures and if I can think of anymore info I'll email it.
