Rig was factory built, but engine, tranny and axles same as Dodge D600. One of those Chrysler industrials.

Frame was fabricated from C channel.

Gotta say, graduating high school in the early 70's, I was late to the party, but was never allowed into the muscle car movement (parents would have none of it), but of those I can remember, some of the Mopars were flat out scary. A particular Road Runner and a Dodge Coronet come to mind. Guys who owned those lucky to be alive.

 Neighbor next to me now has a 69 Dodge Dart and is restoring a 52' pickup.

 Yes, my 1950 Meadowbrook does still have the flathead 230 six with Fluid-Drive.   We've had the car 10 years or so and it's been the most cost efficient vehicle that we've ever had. Low cost insurance,  No license renewal as long as I own it, solid and dependable. It will fit 8 or more comfortably when going to the drive -in (although I mean my size not average obese Americans)

 Our first car after gettin married,,,was a 1965 Plymouth Fury, white over red, two door hardtop and a 426 wedge with automatic. Dang,,sure was pretty and that thing could screech them ta'ars,,,,,

And I still have it, it is in the shed waiting on some work.  Life sure does get in the way of playing with your toys sometimes.

I bought this Road runner in about 1985 or 86.  Got it because I wanted a pistol grip 4 speed car.  Didn't drive it much as I went in the Navy shortly after.  About 10 years ago I decided to get it running and had to redo the motor(knocking).  It is all original paint except I painted the engine compartment because it looked sad next to the nice clean motor.  They were asking $800 for it, I gave $650, no way was it worth $800.  I drive it every now and then.

It has the original motor and trans, factory A/C car, I did add factory cruise control though.

My last duty station in the Navy was in northern CA.  I used to go over to Sacramento to the u pull it junk yards and grab parts.  This was setting on a flatbed ready to go in and I asked about buying it.  Cost me $535, this was about 1990 I think.  It is a 1966 dodge charger, loaded, PS, PB,A/C, PW.  I was able to get a clear title as it hadn't been bought by the yard yet, still has the black California plates.  It is another project I will get to soon.

I am so thankful my parents allowed me to put my old junk cars on their place until I was able to get my own shed to store them in.

2020 Gladiator.  At less than 600 miles engine light came on.  Computer code P0300 with random cylinder misfires.  After 33 days in the service shop, Jeep Engineers couldn't find problem, so they reset the Engine Light and returned the vehicle to me.  Jeep Customer Cares Retention Specialist would not offer replacement vehicle or refund, while the Engine light is off.  Today I filed a claim under Ohio Lemon Law.
