I live in that town! Any more info. How long ago was that article?

Yes, both cars I mentioned at the beginning of this thread were featured in Guide to Muscle Cars. The blue one was in the October '89 issue. It was owned by B. Tibbs at the time and had a blue bucket interior with a column shift. It also had 3.55's which I don't believe were available with the RA IV. Only 3.90's or 4.33's. The red one was in the August '87 issue. It was owned by T. Benko and had a black bucket interior with a console.

It may even have been Ringoes. I'd guess early 1990s. I'm overseas currently so I can't look in my stash, but look out for a drag test among a few cars.

The only 70 Ram4 Convertible that i know for sure that sold new in Canada - is a GTO , non-Judge. There could be others.

White / Sandal / Sandal
Automatic on Column , Bench Seat , Pwr Windows , Povert Caps

Was a very popular car in the poncho community a few years back.
Been in the states for a while.

then there is an Automatic White IV Judge Vert that was painted Hugger Orange , that is/was in Canada , but forget which country it sold new in.
