I just inherited my dad’s 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A 340 Six Pack — Hemi Orange with the black vinyl top, 4-speed manual with the pistol grip shifter. Already a rare combo on its own (1 of 2,399 T/As ever built, 1 of 989 with the manual/pistol grip).

But the real find was what was still with the car: the original title, the cashier’s check from the sale, the bill of sale, the owner’s manual, his Mr. Norm’s Grand-Spaulding Dodge club card, the business card of the salesman who sold it to him, every insurance document, even his pay stub from Inland Steel — and an honest-to-god original Mr. Norm’s t-shirt, still folded up.

I can’t imagine many cars this old come with this much surviving paperwork. Feels less like inheriting a car and more like inheriting a time capsule.
Taking the whole “mini museum” to MCACN this November — can’t wait to share it.

Finally got to my Dads 1970 Challenger TA 340 Six Pack. I’m shocked at how good the condition of the interior is. Front seats need a little upholstery love but it’s in great shape for being 50+ yrs old. Keys are still in the ignition. It also has the vinyl top and the pistol grip making it even more rare. Exterior has a little rust. And my dad had it running about a yr ago.

I’ll be bringing this to MCACN. I don’t not know what I’m doing with it yet. So not ask me how much I want for it. I am open to selling if the right price is offered. It’s a gem.

Just inherited this beauty from my dad.

1970 dodge challenger T/A.
Pistol grip
Black vinyl top.
Bought from Mr. Norms.

Still have the original paperwork. Looking forward to showing off this car at the MCACN in November.

Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous post. This Mr Norms 1970 Challenger T/A with the vinyl top will be headed to MCACN in November as part of the Barn Finds section.

I’m learning a lot about this car, about muscle cars in general. Always been an admirer but I never thought I’d be bringing one to a show. It will be a great way to honor my dad.

I look forward to learning more from all of you and hopefully meeting up while at the show. I still need to figure out how to get this thing there, and the learning curve is steep, but I’ll figure it out.

Anyone a big car collector? I have an extremely rare 1970 dodge challenger t/a 340 six pack. I have pretty much everything original. Originally bought at Mr. Norms. Definitely needs some work but he had the engine running a few yrs ago. All the original paperwork. Even the original tires.

I’ll get better pics next time I’m in the area. Possibly looking to sell. Maybe look to restore. Not very knowledgeable with cars but I’ve seen this car in my dad’s garage since I was little. Now that he’s passed I want to make the best decision.
