In the early 80's.......I bought a running,driving,#'s matching 70 T/A automatic.......for less money than the carburetor is worth today.. ..it was a rusty "bondo bucket" but it was mine and I could drive it....and I DID........It was my "winter beater" ...... the late model T/A was parked at the end of October and the 70 T/A got the studded snow tires......hell,it was rusty anyways....we never get much snow around here but it was an interesting "winter car"...

The first 3 pics were taken on the way home...the day I bought it...
Wow - a "Patriot Edition" (with a Ram Air IV shaker decal, no less!)
Cool car. What ever happened to it?

Yes, owner posted some pictures of it on this site several years ago - I thought I'd saved the pictures, but can't find them now....
