Still looking to buy back my first car. Bought new in Houston on 10/24/70. I've a few leads since first post but the trail is cold. Last I found was Kruse auctions sold it in 2009. B3 blue with blue stripes, luggage rack, R/T, column automatic, air conditioning, power steering and disc brakes. Any help reuniting us would be greatly appreciated.

I can see why you’d want it back, what a beauty! Was that the original color combo?

Your first car was nicely equipped with a unique color and stripe combo. That must have really something on the day you picked her up. Good luck with your search!

It might be in Canada!
You could put a wanted ad in the craigslist of a couple major cities. Who knows!
By the way, she was a beauty, must be nice to have good taste.
Good luck

You could also try putting the request on FACEBOOK. There are a number of Mopar sites that focus upon E body cars.
Some sites there that might help; Mopars on line, Mopar trader, E Body Mopar, Ultimate 70-71 Cuda-Challengers. Posting on these and some others could give some leads. Good luck

Looks like you already did this; sorry for the repeat. I see you posted on the E body Mopar site. Again, hope you find it!

Yes, That's what it looked like.

Found it and reunited!!! Haven't see the car in 37 years. What are the odds that it survived and then the odds that I could find and buy it back? The car has been in Stanton Texas for the past 10 years and in Corpus before that. I'm happy

You gotta be a good person to have your wish come true like this, I am happy for you.
I am curious though, who gave you the lead?

Got it thru a contact with the Texas DMV (which wasn't easy). Found the owner via Linkedin and made a deal

Really glad you were able to locate and buy back your Challenger RT
Congrats!
