Can't help you with your search - But interesting name you picked out - you wouldn't have been associated in some capacity with the C141s would you? During my AF career (long distance radio operator), I've talked with every 141 and C5 ever built (and probably every Buff, 135, SR-71 and U2 as well!).

65Dartman., Sending you a Salute , from one blue suit to another, my AF time ended in 2006 after a 34 year ride and yes the dollar41 was my girlfriend, first in southeast asia and later in germany, absoulutely loved that bird and cried when they started cutting them up at the boneyard (davis monthan )arizona.. I probably talked with you a few times in crossing the big water flights,,I was also ramp control at frankfurt germany(atoc),, thanks brother for the inspiration to a busted up ol troop. Don

Dont know if its the car your asking about. But, there is a car here in southeast wisconsin ( oakcreek) that has all of the equipment minus the top. Will see if I can get pics. Dont know if its your old car, but worth a shot.

I do know this car has an 8.75 rear in it. And is a four speed. I will do a little more investigating.

klb ,You are helping this old disabled GI find his lil dream car,,I only sold it because the (now Ex) didnt like it and wouldnt drive it,,, Thanks my new friend,,thanks,,

 

[klb6469]

Sure am. My wife does'nt like the RoadRunner or the R/T either. But she does'nt have to like them, because there not hers. But once they are finished, and she rides in one, I think her thoughts will change.

 

[roadrunnerman]

good luck on your search.i hope you find that lil' baby of yours.

Oooooh this is better than any soap opera. I really hope it turns out to be airlifter's car. I'm following this thread closely.

 

[airlifter141]

qurtuba thanks,,I'm not trying to make a soap opera, just kinda of a last wish think on a short bucket list. Once you get an attachment to a special car or truck they stay with you, all the dragsters i run thru the years and muscled up mopars the Lil Red was as special as the first time ,nope better... thanks ,,Don
