That is a very nice ride indeed.....so u gonna be stickin a cummins in it?

On a serious note that would be a cool gift. I got something similar but just do not know how to take it. He's an old guy too 76...kids are rich, and he knows me and what I do and work. He has a fully functioning body shop and he still does body work really good. Well he said when he dies, I'm in the will, all the shop tools, and a bunch of stuff on a farm in the praries...

SO if you get this congrats man that's a sweet ride. I kinda know how u may be feeling..... ;)

My buddy in high school had a Sattlelite very similar to that RR, small block automatic, I really liked it actually. Small block Mopars make really good horsepower with a little work ;Sweet

The man must be a good judge of character and know you were not helping him for return but out of kindness, or you most likely would not be in mind for that car. I too have a soft spot for mopars. I recieved my addiction to speed from a 70 340 Duster. Not nearly as nice as that Runner but it was a quick little ride.

Not familar with Mopar, but isn't the RR just like the Dodge Dart, sure looks the same. Jim and I hauled a Dart from Denver to NJ, no engine in it but the body was made into a dragster with chute on the back and all. It took the Championship there at 154 MPH in a 1/4 mile.
