6 pack w/air cond. air cleaner???

[TUFCAT]

The "promo" (not pilot) SIX-PACK 4-speed Challenger R/T 'verts also had a red interior.

One of these was in AZ or CA ~10-15 years ago with a black dash & A/C.  

So if I'm following you correctly, one of the [approximately six known to exist] FE5 red "promo" built for national auto show display, 1970 Challenger R/T 440 Six Pack 4-speed convertibles [very early production and possibly the first scheduled day of August '69 as speculated] has been seen with air conditioning and a black IP with red interior?  

I'm hoping you're not suggesting Chrysler actually built it this way?....

No - I do NOT believe Chrysler Corp. built it that way.
1970:
"PILOTS" - scheduled Friday, 801 - but built earlier - "Pre-Production"
"PROMOS" - scheduled Saturday, 802 - but built later - "introductory new car models for dealer shows" (not public shows, although some made appearances there)

Thanks brother..... that was exactly what I wanted to hear.  

Some people only seem interested in re-writing history to their advantage....which seems to have become a big issue in the past several months.

Sadly, I think it has always been so.....people trying to prove they are smarter then others. As someone has said, if one can not dazzle people with one's brilliance, baffle them with one's bull feces.

The puzzling part..... trying it here. There's just too many really sharp people on this site to even think it's possible to spread feces. I don't get it.....why even try?

Just for chits and giggles, here a "factory" equipped Monteverdi Hai, built in 1970, Chrysler supplied the engines, production was to be 50 cars, but production actual only saw 2 being made...Hmmmm

[TUFCAT]

A Hemi with a/c!  However it was conceived.....dude I'm totally down with it!

Were any of the Jensen's equipped with a Six Pack?

As far as I am concerned this was a U code 70 Charger R/T that was mis-typed as a V code and the fender tag and mylar decal are not original. Hopefully one day I find the broadcast sheet and put this to rest.

The notched air cleaner bases were used on the Interceptor SP with A/C.

A better picture the cutout.  Not sure if it would clear an RV2 compressor.

Chrysler engineering did indeed perform an engineering exercise to fit AC on a six pak - see photo I found on that other site
From speaking with people in Detroit that were well immersed in the production of those cars back then - they told me that Chrysler indeed would have done the engineering exercise on the Hemi. Doh!

check out the alternator bracket, upper rad hose, fat 22 inch radiator and the writing on the battery

I have read of rumors over the years of hemi cars with AC and there is fender tag data from an early build [september] 71 Challenger Executive ordered car JS23V1B  E87 D36 with H51 on the tag.  Never say never esp after finding that pic on the web

If there was any built most likely early Pilot Cars & not regular Production. LEON.

[6pkrtse]

It takes more than that to notch that air cleaner on a sixpack. Mine has been on for close to 30 years now.

[moparstuart]

Just bought this repop. They make them cut out now for sanden compressors.

I can't ever get pictures to post on this site or I would post some of on how I fit mine as a kid.

[timmycharger]

I have the repro air cleaner as well, fits perfectly with the modern A/C compressor. I hacked the passenger side as I was previously using a MSD pro billet distributor which I got rid of.

good picture ! thanks for posting  , never seen that before ... hope you dont mind ive enlarged it

i think this picture is something along the lines of what  HH Leon said ,
who remembers the preproduction white hemi cuda  what was  originally built in july as a 318 or 340 grand coupe  then changed to a hemi cuda for evaluation then sold  to the public it still had the over head console i think thats how the story went anyways weather true or not    also the preproduction  71 hemi charger  in red  that had a few options that was on tag on was fitted that did not match, then was sold to the public ...there have been a few more that i cant think of right now ,  guess we will never know what chrysler really got up to , but think that sublime 70 is a U code  with a miss stamped  vin tag
