me liky very much!!

I put a 440/435-205 D60-D70-4.56 front/rear lockers 6" skyjacker lift 17/40/15 Ground Hawgs on 12x15 Bart super trucker rims in a 79 RC and got the name scratchinfotraction king of Rancho from the local 4x4 club (sunshine swampers) back in 93 (now rancho is all private mudding spot.)

I would have to say the weak spot was the rear u-joints. the fix was lower crossmember1.5"- roll pinion up a few degrees add CV joints to both ends of rear shaft then it would scratch deep.

that RC looks very familiar to me like I have seen it before? does it have a 9 1/4 with rear disc brake?

either way well done looks like it rocks as is to me.

It's got a 9 1/4 rear but with drums. Will drive it a while as is and add some paint this summer.

Cool RC!

Reminds me of the one from the Chuck Norris movie, Lone Wolf McQuade.

must be the way the paint fads with age..that color always looks the same when aged like that.

myself I love that look as a daily driver, it has that "it gets used" & has that "look" that really does it for me. but any color works on a mopar even when it is not really a color LOL!

Indeed I am Jealous! just color you lucky I guess.

I remember when I first saw that movie and was exited when it showed a supercharge on it and the same yr in a mopar mag DLI-Dick Landy Industries offered that very package for the SB mopar. A single 4 barrel supercharger & intake with drive set up for a low compression SB mopar around the 3500$ to 4500$ range in price.

you know it is a real mopar when they bury it and it scratches its way out the hole. just as tuff as chuck if you ask me.
