Earlier in this thread there was a list of known RA II cars. I know of another that was documented last spring. It is in Cincy. I'll get the details. It was at another shop, the owner of 25 years wanted to get the car back on the road, I noticed the very late build date and the crudely opened scoops along with the faint outline of a RA Pan under the hood. Suggested they get PHS. Came back positive!

Crap lol

I was thinking for some reason that only about 50 or 60 were built.
Paul i was way off on approximate when i said only about one fourth (25%) were known of directly, in your thread.

More like - about 5% have been verified.

M_C , can you bring me/us up to speed a lil more about your BLUE Ram2 car ?
Colors in and out, Equipment, Intact-ness factor ?

If i've observed right -
you had a VooDoo 4spd - 1 piece car
and had a VooDoo Auto project

Seems like a couple or few mentioned/asked about the VooDoo Green / Ivy 4spd shell that Vern sold on eBay.

Its most likely the car that gahotrod is restoring. (or finished by now probably)
The buyer was in Georgia, Boss even wondered if it was Milt R. at that time it sold.
High chances its the same car.

This was the skinny on it :

The car just recently went back in for restoration. They purchased heads and are looking for a block. I don't know the owner, only the guy restoring it. I'll get more info and post what I can find out.
