440, 440+6 or Hemi?
You just had to chose...


The Plymouth GTX of 1970 :

The 1970 GTX received new smoother lines. Low sales caused the removal of the convertible.

The new styling featured a power bulge hood and non-functional rear brake scoops. The new change included a revamped nose with a B-shaped grille.
The "Air Grabber" option continued, the air was forced through a trapdoor that would pop up when the driver activated a switch on the instrument panel.
Optional 15x7 Rallye wheels became available for the first time.

Under the hood, buyers could choose from a 440 with 375 bhp, the 440+6 with 390 bhp and the big 425 bhp of the 426 Hemi.

Optional with the 440+6, and standard with the Hemi was the latest version of the Air Grabber hood. Typical of the time, the flap featured a shark decal on the side.

The GTX was always heavier than the Road Runner and thus it was slower.

Sales continued to suffer and only 7,202 GTX were sold.


Plymouth an Dodge won almost all the NASCAR of the year 1970. Thanks to the HEMI.
