Toys of past and present

I love the ramchargers, best looking sport utility vehicles ever!
 
I always wished they had made a Suburban sized Ramcharger


Here's a couple.

There was a guy around here that made one. He brought it to "Mopars in the Park" for a couple years. I have a picture of it somewhere? It was black, and he used the top upper half off a Cheby Suburban. He did a nice job, it looked good.

You have to go to Mexico, their everywhere down there. They didn't make them for the U.S. because they weren't safe enough.

What was unsafe about them? Roof not strong enough for a roll over crash?

I don't really know why to be exact, but I think it had to do with crash test ratings or something like that.

Do you still have all of them?

I like that roll back and the doggie too!!!!

I no longer have the blue '70 Road Runner, '73 Power wagon, '79 Ramcharger, '69 Sport Satellite, '67 F600 or the '95 New Yorker and I sold the blue Ramcharger to my cousin.

The truck just has a combination box with a hoist. When I farmed I used it mostly to haul grain, and I repainted it and replaced the bed floor before I sold it ...

I will try to be nice and not say anything about k-cars

Had to drive something in the snow. They were great beaters and never gave me grief. I had 500 000 kliks on each one before they gave up.

I love K cars.....now they're tough to find these days.


Has2be had some great "toys"

Honestly I don't know what all is considered a "K car", but I had this '92 Dynasty for a short time, but it was too small for me... I tried to move the seat back a dozen times in the 15 mile trip home with it. I sold it to my brother in law and he drove it to about 300,000 miles and a deer hit is what finally finished it off.

I yself was thinking of the mid80's k's
My dad had a Dynasty, an 89 was that a k? I didnt like those
 
Chrysler used the re-skinned K car platform for just about everything in the line up from 81-93 (Daytona, Dynasty front drive NY etc). In that period, if it had front it was essentially the K car underneath. Even the minivan was a modded K car chassis.
 
When my dad died, my mother took over his nearly new Dynasty. A couple of years old, a few thousand miles.
When my mother died, I took over the Dynasty, now about 5-6 years old and 10,000 miles to try out as a DD b&f to work.
I hated every second of it. 10 days later the transmission blew to smithereens. My sister was pissed at me because she was handling the estate. I told her it was ma's revenge.
