I have heard the same thing on 4 made, that would be with the pink stripe in a six pack N96 shaker hood car. May want to get on Moparts.com and ask there kissalien and Daniel Banker are the experts.
As far as FM3 Panther Pink six pack shaker hood cars go beside the ones you listed, I know of 2 others both have white stripes originally.

One other thing, Dodge only made 184 Shaker hood Challengers in 1970, so by collector standards they are pretty rare in any color.

Any break down between Hemi's and others? Were Hemi's and Six Packs the only ones that could have the shaker? Just how many Hemi's were there in 70?

[PPPJJJFFF]

Best guess.

Challenger RT/SE
426 Hemi automatic -37
426 Hemi four speed -22

Challenger RT
150 automatic cars and 137 4-speeds

4 - R/T Convertible auto's
5 - R/T Convertible 4 speeds

In 70 you could get a shaker hood on a 340, 440 4bbl, 440 6-Pak or 426 hemi E-body (Challenger or Cuda). On the Hemi Cuda, the shaker was standard equipment but on the other models, it was an option.

There is also 2 383 Challengers I have heard have shaker hoods.
Daniel Banker owns one of them and it's a pink car also

Here is the one in Tulsa that they guy is fed up with and doesn't want anymore. The pic on the roll back is after getting the top put on; he has put many more of the parts back on before stopping, not shown in the pics. He will get me more pics and some paperwork later in the weekend.

I always thought the panther pink was a pretty cool color. Like the purple ones too.

In real life this car looks a much lighter shade, and more pink than the pic implies when I see it on my screen.
