I had a sneakin suspicion bout that and since I no pretty much 0 of 0 about Mopars that would make sense...hmmm, I just got a call about this non existant car tucked away in a garage here...I wonder what it is then, have to go see..

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

I would go now if i was you. Its a documented fact that a few sixpack cars snuck thru!!!

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

It is always worth checking things out! You never know what will be there.May be a wasted trip like mine last week but then again you may hit the JACKPOT!

This is what im hearing..The word I got is an original owner car. Didnt know what it was when my buddy told me. thats why i posted it here. I figured it was a common car but the 440 6 pack sounded like something to check out. Were there any Hemi cars in 72? Just curious..that ended in 71 correct?

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

No 72 hemis. Chrysler was working on a ball-stud rocker mount, cylinder head that would have been the next generation of the hemi but it was cancelled during development. The cylinder head was more like a big block chevy than a hemi.

There were two that snuck out the doors with the 440 Six Pack.

That is correct. There were several cars, Dodge and Plymoth B-bodies, that have been documented. The reason that they "snuck out" is that the engine was not emissions certified for 1972 and it's existance as a production vehicle was something of a legal violation. They were built during initial drivetrain testing/pilot vehicle production and then sold off as used cars or crushed.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

I read in Mopar Collectors Guide , 2 roadrunners were produced and they have heard of 2 others ( not confirmed )

Pacrcar

Go check out that car and look for a V in the V I N .

We may have something here, Sure about the V ?

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

"V" would be the correct code for a 440 Six Pack. "U" would be a 440 Magnum 4 barrel.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Yep , Sam said he was going to look at a 72 440+6 GTX, code would be V for 6 pac.

To date 2 ralley chargers and 2 roadrunners have been documented ,but no 72 GTX , U code for 440 4 bbl and V code for six pack.

You have got to have a look at the car though.,
Half the fun in the car hobby is the car chase,

good luck Sam. pacecar

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

The only Road Runners with 440s were GTXs, so the RRs that have been found are GTXs. One of them is currently a race car in IL.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

I stand corrected. Good info.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

One very expensive race in IL.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack

Hey Steve, If I can get back to reshoot the car would you want to go?

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Happy to take a look, I'll PM you. (I have no money so I'm a safe date)-NJSteve

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

I just found this post, There are 2 72 6 Pack Chargers known to exist and 1 Road Runner Known to exist. No other cars have shown up.

Hi, Larry, nice to see you pop in...

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Boy, talk about a rare beast! Great color too. Were these prototypes or sold to the public?

Sold to the public, but obviously not many before the engine was dropped

Hey Larry, altho most round here are bowtie-centric, we have recently (I mean Charley has) added a Mopar section and would love to have you stick around and participate. We have a number of closet Mopar fans. I have always been a Mopar fan and have a '62 S/S Savoy raced in the Chicago area.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Yeah, what he said. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Welcome!

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Thanks for the welcome.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Hey, here's some trivia for you folks - this was part of a discussion on Moparts earlier this year:

The 1972 V-code was only available with an automatic!

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

There are lots of cool Mopars. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]

Welcome Larry !

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

Welcome Larry and thanks for the post on the cool Mopar. I always thought the 440-6 ended with model year 71 production.

Re: 72 roadrunner gxt 440 6 six pack
 

They were going to release the 6 pack in 72 but it did not meet the new emission laws for 72 so they had to pull it. A few slipped out very early in production.
