I drove one of those at the truck driver school I attended in 1976, used it for backing practice in the yard. Didn't have the Chrysler logo, but otherwise identical.
Very cool, I went there several years back and saw a dude rolling through there in a fixer 69 road runner. Funny, maybe 6 mos-1 year later I heard a listeners letter on the flash Phelps show on serius xm from a guy in Colorado who was fixing up a 69 road runner and visiting all of the state and nat’l parks in it. I figure it musta been the same dude.
I found my R/T near there in 1982. I still have it.
That blue 69 Charger with the 70 R/T door scoops, looks exactly like the first Charger I ever owned, right down to the wheels! I pulled into my driveway all proud of my new purchase, and my uncle was painting his house next door. He took one look at my new prized possession and asked,where's the A,I was like what A to which he replied the A that goes between the R and the T! Lol
This is how we drove our jacked up cars with wide wheels in the winter, I had Pro Trac N50-15's on the back of my Charger, drove it all winter in Colorado Springs, I worked part time as hospital security while in the Army and one day driving through a blizzard to get to work, started spinning in the middle of an intersection when all of a sudden a cop cruiser with a push bar lightly bumped me through.
Just a coincidence that my R/T is from Colorado Springs (where you lived) when I bought it 1982 and that the car was ordered new from Marietta, Ohio(where you live state anyway) How it ended up in Colorado I do not know that.
