SOLD. The Ramrod is a real car very rough! original engine gone. Air cleaner,Scoops,wheel wells,Trans,Shifter, linkage,pedals and rear end still there and lots of other parts.No sheetmetal .Havent really looked at it close yet. Chrome Wheels from an 80s Gbody Nice head lamp housings etc .Might sell all the Ramrod specific parts in a package.

I was hopeing someone would want at least the Ramrod as it sits.Problem is neither car has a title.That can be remedied also depending on where you live. I would sell them in a package. I actually hate breaking up the ramrod package at very least would like to sell the major components that make up the Ramrod, have more parts available to restore the red car for xtra.I have had a couple inquires on the package but at this point havent made any deals.

If the RamRod does get cut up into bits, I would like first dibs on the 4 speed hump area of the floor. We are in the ball park on price........ maybe a 25% Canadian discount is on order:-)
Nice to talk to you again today Greg!!

I talked to Greg yesterday, and he wishes to sell the ramrod parts in one batch. I'm very interested in the OAI parts (minus wheelwells) and likely the rear end housing.
If anybody is interested in the whole 4 speed setup and/or wheelwells, we can likely work out a deal to split it up. I'm in a position where trying to deal with picking up the whole package, then having to resell the trans and wells, just isn't possible with everything else I have going on right now. Space and logistics are more of an issue for me than anything, otherwise I'd be going after the whole car. Thanks.

This car needs to be saved. It's far from gone or rough. I've seen less valuable cars brought back from the dead. Someone needs to step up and buy the ramrod separate from the Cutlass if a package deal can't work. Any title issues can be worked out they just take time as long as the car wasn't stolen. If I had the funds to purchase it and restore a car this rare I'd be all over this car.

I'll have to get back to you on the carb #. But the engine is a 350 out of a 73. Also, I have the identity and address of one of the owners back to at least 1974.

There are no original engine components.The car is a 3:90 open rear and is the original.I looked at the car about 8 months ago and verified the Vin on the trans matches. I cant get pics of the trans right now but I can once the weather warms up.

Vin, Trans & Air Cleaner
Here are some detail shots of the parts on this Ram Rod. Two of the VIN tag, one was enhanced to try to bring out the numbers a little better.
Actually if you look at the VIN tag, it looks like the last two digits "19" got cut off the picture on the extreme right.
