Is there anyone out there tracking W-30 cars ?

Just curious, I had three different '70 cars back in the '80s and still have paperwork, photos and a ton of info on each idividual car.

On a related note, I just saw my first 1972 W30 car this week. Bench seat 4 speed car, with poverty caps. Color looks a lot like Rally Green, with a little more snap, and a black interior. Neat car, will be for sale at my buddy's dealership next week (price in the $25-30K range I believe). He's on vacation this week, but you can load up his answering machine or call him Monday morning at 206-575-1258 (Memory Lane Motors, Seattle, WA)

(Moderators, this isn't a for sale ad so much as a heads up for the W30 faithful - hope you understand THANKS)

I've got a friend in Ketchikan with a Challenger T/A.

There used to be a W-30 registry web page (it was pretty informal) that may be a good start. It was in limbo, last I remember. It probably exists somewhere on the Net but won't be up to date. I don't recall any white/blue cars other than mine, but I could be wrong.

I have been keeping a data base on the 71 W-30 cars and some info on 70's as well as 72. My 71 info is the most complete. I wont refer the info as a registry as not all the cars can be documented as being the real thing. Would like to hear what you have for paperwork. PM me or send to [email protected]

Yup, that's Barry. He's one of my car pen-pals so we keep each other informed in the Mopar world. He's an asset to the hobby.
