I was messing around over at cuda-challenger.com and made an intro post, mentioning that my rear side windows are fixed in place. One of the members made mention of the Deputy package (I'd never heard of it before today), so I checked my build sheet and it has the A93 code.

Anyone have any more info? Was it a regional package? Production numbers? I know it's not super rare, but it's still kind of neat.

This may help you regarding the A93 code cars from challenger specs.com:

Challenger Deputy

The low priced Challenger Deputy (Option Code A93) was a mid-year introduction (March 1970) and continued until the end of 1971 model production.

This version of the Challenger was unique in several ways.


The car was similar to the base Challenger hardtop with the following exceptions ;

The rear quarter windows were fixed in place by leaving out the regulator and bolting the track.
The rear window winder was deleted and the hole plugged with a chrome button.
The standard engine was the 198 6 cyl. with the 225, 318 and 383 (2v and 4v) optional.
The seats were the cheaper standard Plymouth Barracuda seats in black or white only.
The steering wheel is coachman grain like the Barracuda.
Things like dual horns, cigar lighter and night/day rear mirror were optional.
There are only six Deputys known to have been built with the 383 4bbl engine. Three with automatics and three with 4-speeds

Fender tag was removed by the PO during the repaint. Here's a scan of the build sheet though -

Well, pretty lucky I guess. I've never found one in any other car I've owned (save for a '85 Mercury Capri RS, and it had laminated itself to the rear drivers side floorboard - completely readable, but it was never going to be removed). At least this one is almost all there, and readable.
