I dont remember where I saw it? But when i bought my 70 RA3 and i was researching it, I found something that said there were only 9 known RA4 cars known to still exist. Take it with a grain of salt. I wish I could remember where I saw the info.

[dancolkate]

According to PHS, 23 of the 88 cars are known to exist.
Of the 23 cars, 6 MT cars have the original engine. And 3 AT have the original engine.

I know that one of these RAIV cars exists in El Paso TX.
The man has owned it for years, also has a nice collection of cars.

[racerboy]

And probably not interested in parting with it, right?

[Larry Navarro]

Nope....its been attempted.

This one belongs to a guy I know here in San Diego. I think it was put up for sale a few months back. I'm not sure if it sold or not.

[racerboy]

R 70,
Can you get more info? I would be interested in looking at such a car.

There was a white 4 speed car that won stock class at the T/A Nationals this year. It was a concours restoration. That car is from North Carolina.

That blue one is sitting kinda high, don't you think? But I would deal with it.

[Larry Navarro]

Yep, that the one.
Didn't know he sold it. Wonder who has it now.

[roundportponchos]

The one in San Diego, was sold on ebay about a yr ago.

[poncho-mike]

Several years back, I sold a WW out of a 70 T/A. The T/A was sold new in NC at a dealership in Asheboro. NC DMV did not show the title being transferred after about 1975, and the car was never registered again. The car was registered to a woman with a very common last name. I went by the last known address, and the houses had been torn down and replaced with a strip mall. The locals had all moved when the city began growing and commercial replaced residential. I wasn't able to find any information, other than the houses along there were mostly rental.

The car was taken off the road in the mid-70s, supposedly because it was wrecked. I bought the remaining parts from a guy in the late 80s. As best I could tell, the car was destroyed after the parts were salvaged.

Barry Martin at Sonic Motors also had a 70 T/A that I think was sold new in NC. I'm not sure what ever happened to that car.

There is a guy in western NC that has SD455 T/As and did a full restoration on a 70 Ram IV T/A.

That's about all of the Ram IV cars I personally know of.

My mistake. I didn't realize it was that long ago.

THERE IS A BLUE ON BLUE 4-SPEED RAM AIR IV ON TRADERONLINE.

[toomanybirds]

The VIN listed in the autotrader ad is 228870L107569. This VIN is not listed in McCarthy's book as one of the 88 original Ram Air IV cars. It is probably a clone.
