    I know it is not a Mav but car lovers can always enjoy looking at a sharp car.
    My son has owned the car for 25 years. We just got it out of the paint shop, Ford 2007 screamin yellow.

    Gotta love Mopars,, I baught a 69 roadrunner w/426 4speed radio and heater delete in 1974 for $495 bucks from the plymouth dealer in sarasota fl... No one wanted it because of the Gas shortage... But I had a friend that worked at a gas station so I always had gas for my car.....

    Nice! I have always liked the 70's MoPars. A ragtop is even more sweet! Big block or small block? I think those big cars cry out for a 426 or 440!

    The reason most folks hate obama motors in general is they have built junk for the past 30 years.

    I call GM the American Yugo!!!!!!!!

    This is based on experience of running a 150 car used car lot for several years.

    Every once in a GREAT while I had a good one come through but it was rare.

    Each month I spent 70-80% of my repair expenses on 30% of my inventory.

    I have had many many folks come to me and ask for a chevy because they tell me they know how to work on chevys.

    They thing it is normal to work on their all weekend so they can drive it the next week.

    I have at times tried to dissuade people from buying a GM but usually they tell me they know how to work on them and I assure them that they will need that knowledge.

    When I was a District Manager for Matco Tool Co., We would go to a GM dealership and most of the mechanics were driving Fords or Mopars. What is wrong with that picture. A Ford dealers most of the mechanics were driving Fords.
