Tell you guys a story from the old days. One Sat I was down at my now gone electrical engineering buddy watchin a Sat aft movie, and a "Cal" ad comes on TV and they've got this "bait leader" 69--69RR "on sale" for I don't know what, 800 bucks or something. This was 70 and at that time I had a 69RR. Gary had bought a brand new 70 Chev k20 pickup, and wanted a second cheaper car. So he and I got ourselves all wound up and we drove from National City (Paradise Hills) to LA to Cals outfit. OF COURSE they had no such 69RR that they or we could find, but finally pointed us around "back" and here was "some kind" of 68-9 Plymouth sittin there in a puddle of oil. But they INSISTED we try out a brand new Duster. But they LEAVE THE KEYS in all of them, and the kids play in them leave the keys on, and RUN THE BATTERIES dead. So they get the 'wetback' over there with the grocery cart full of jumper batteries, and "off we go." I got to drive. To this day I bet that salesman was sorry he turned me loose in a 340 4 speed A body!!!! He was not very glib when we got back to the lot
