That would be pretty cool to cruise to Carlisle with you and your buddies.  Paint it black and everybody would be calling it the "Mopar Mafia Machine"

Thats an old Airport Shuttle Limo... We rode in one like it when we returned to the US after four years living in Europe & Asia... Flew into LaGuardia, snow was coming down, my family & another family shared the Limo... It lost the driveshaft in the middle of nowhere.. Had to wait over three hours for a replacement Limo.... My first ride in a Limo didn't give me much interest in a second ride...   Dad picked up his new Chrysler the next day... It wound up losing a tranny in Ohio... Chrysler QC wasn't very good by 73....

No, just wouldn't move anymore...After having bought nothing but Chryslers since 1948 that was the last Chrysler product he ever bought... Lost two trannies, one under warranty... Two rearends, one at 12,500 miles which Chrysler refused to warranty... Car was a gutless pig that got half the mileage of his previous Chrysler & had half the power...   Chrysler had a 5yr-50K mile warranty on powertrain till 72... 73 comes along & they burn a long time loyal customer with 12,500 miles on his car?  :screwy:
