Ah yes, @JS23U   Much appreciated as I had missed those observations.
You are the reason I post this stuff.  The help I get is invaluable.
I am not a numbers savant and don't see everything when I put it down on paper.
Constantly try to get this correct but it is difficult.

Anyway I have searched those vins for years and never get anything back from any of them.
Maybe one day, one will pop up.

Been a while since any new M46 info has surfaced.  Thanks again!!

Nothing new to add to the list.
However I have had conversation with a few folks about BH23N0B133029.
This car is being restored.
I have no details but I am hopeful that the car will be restored correctly and will be shown so that we may discuss this awesome car.

The stripes that are needed for this car are located here.

Check this out.  Just found this page. 
Is this Swiss?   

They copied my list. Have not been active updating their, MY list since the 29th addition.  Glad someone is getting information, sharing it and using it.  Makes me wonder if there is another scooped car over there that I do not know about.  Yet. 

http://www.mopar.ch/story-19.htm

 I have some issues with this.  Barry Washington is who is quoted as creating this list. 
  For the record, I have received ZERO,   ABSOLUTELY ZERO information from that man about m46's.   
  With exceptions of a few posts he made back on moparts years and years ago with no real information. 
  @alaskan T/A   @Barry @washington   @anything.
    Are you out there?   Barry?  You want to add one shred of information about these cars?  For me?  For the world?  For anyone with interest?  (very few of us)  .   

   Here is the translation above the list I provided to create this spread sheet on this page. 

  M-46 Registry by Barry Washington
Barry is THE source for Mopar data. He's taken up the topic and created a special section for the '70 Barracuda with the M-46 code.

Now, Barry has a great site with lots of information.  Can anyone find anything about M46's on his site?   
 I'll even plug his site as he is a great resource to the hobby, regardless of his unwillingness to help me apparently. 
https://www.hamtramck-historical.com/
  His site is very appreciated by me. 


After translating the entire page there are many stated items that are wrong.

Mr Cuda

I guess its too late now to add a watermark to any pictures you posted.
 He did add that fancy color highlight over each vin.
 Maybe soon M46 cars will be worth more? All these years when I told people it was a rare car,.... I got a blank look.

cuda hunter

It's all good.
I don't make money on any of this so I have no reason to "protect" the information anyway. 
  Truly glad that more information is out there.  Even if it is misguided.   
  Worth more?  Only because these cars in general go up in value in general market.

I did find a "shred" of information on the hamtramck website.
Found a while ago and I can't find it on the site now.

I think this is a body & paint Build sheet.

@cuda hunter
Do you remember to which car this paper belongs? Date and color combination would fit BH23G0B103140 (FY1 V1X, SPD 819). 038991 seems to be the VON which is unknown (to me) for 0B103140.

Oh Wow !!   This is awesome!  You have connected a piece of a puzzle here.   BH23G0B103140 is indeed 038991.  That paper does indeed belong to the FY1 car. 
  The car was lost to me and all I have is the broadcast sheet and title but no fender tag.  Apparently I have a special paint "build sheet" that some how came through Barry.  I know that Al was very sharing of the information and was very active on moparts back in the early 2000's.  Even as nice as Al was, right up until his passing I never received a trail from him for the BH23G0B103140.  Al was sharp up to the end but that one trail evaded him for years. 
  As he would tell me the story of the car, it was a very rust free car that (as I recall) he picked up from Texas, same place(time frame) he picked up BH23G0E102911 from Texas.  I believe he pulled the scoops from  103140 to install them on 102911.
 Just months before his passing he told me he did have more pictures of both BH23G0B103140 and BH23G0E102911 on an old hard drive but did not know how to recover the pictures.  He said he would try, but alas it appears they will be lost.  I wouldn't be the person to ask Peggy to go through old hard drive's to find some stupid (not to me) car pictures, especially while she is probably still grieving.  Rest his soul.  Al was a good man.  (even if he did over charge me for all the stuff I bought off of him, to help him out).  I did offer to pay to have Al take the old computers to a computer specialist to retrieve all his old pictures. I'm not pushy though, especially while someone is staring down the path he was on at the end of his life. 

  BH23G0B103140 ended up as an AAR tribute and for sale at RK motors.
It still holds its fender tag of which I have no good picture of. 
  BH23G0B103140
No clue where the car is now, or if it has it's broadcast sheet, build sheet and original title.  It is beautiful though. That would be an M46 that I would love to own!!

@JS23U You knew Al?  I've not had anyone with information on this car mention it. 

  I may just have to go ahead and add this one to the list since I do have several points of documentation.   Upcoming addition !!!!   Hooray!!

And now we are at 34.
A new edition to the list. #6 
BH23G0B103140

This car has become an AAR tribute restomod-ish. 
This is the only car that I have ever seen a
PAINT BUILD SHEET     for. 
Very specific for the special paint scheme.   
I wonder if the owner of the tribute car knows there is more info about his car out here?  Or does he/she even care, since it is a tribute car anyway.

This car can be seen in all it's glory here.

It's broadcast sheet, special paint build sheet and an early/original title exists for this car.  It has a fender tag in the pictures but isn't quite clear enough to get the codes. 
If anyone knows of this car I would love to talk to you about it.
