Joe Namath's '69 Charger R/T *** Updated w/image

[dkn1997]

That would be an interesting car to find.  I know when Mark Mcguire broke roger Maris home run record of 61, the Cardinals gave hom a 62 Vett.  I doubt those guys appreciate the cars as we would.

I heard took it to a local shop to see what they could do to make more power as the original 327 wasn't quite what he had in mind in such a sexy/fast looking car.  they suggested an LS1 swap or a power adder to the original motor.  He opted for nitrous because he was partial to the juice

Thread revived from the dead after more than four years. That's got to be a record of some sort!

New member, he/she must have seen something that he/she wanted to contribute to... I found it interesting haven't seen it before either, I wonder what ever happened to it ultimately...  I was a big "Broadway Joe" fan in 1970 I was 11, he was a hero to many youngsters back then...

I didn't realize it was such an old discussion. I was at moparts forum when someone asked about the car. They said the owner was on this forum. I sure was curious to see one of them. Nice forum!

A friend of mine owns the  MVP 71 Charger given to Ken Dryden back in 71 . I found the car but could not afford to buy it

That would be sweet to have some pics of as well.  Kevin Green who now coaches for green Bay was from my town he used to be the owner of several 3rd gen Chargers.

I worked for Vaughn Dodge in Beaver Falls when they delivered his 2 Chargers. One was light blue with white top and darker blue interior. The other was yellow with brown top and interior. From what i understand he was given the use of them for one year and then had the option of buying them for $1000 each. His parents were divorced so he gave his dad the blue one and his mother the yellow one. His mother worked near our house and she drove it to work. The blue one was still around that area as of 10 years ago. They were both RT's and loaded with everything except the hemi. If i recall correctly the sticker was like $6900? I got to burn the tires on both cars while gassing them up at the gas station a few blocks away.
