Thanks for posting this I enjoyed watching it I remember reading an article in one of my books about this car, I bet he must be happy he kept it rather then sell it like so many other people would have.

Truly 20/20 foresight.

Could have never imagined Richard Carpenter as a car guy!
Great that he kept the car the way it is.

I only watched this last night after a mate recommended it. Must say, thoroughly enjoyed watching it.

Nice video. Jay is gonna be at a local car museum for a Veteran's Day charity event. I'm hoping he'll drive my hemi-roadrunner.

That would be very cool.

Like how Richard mentions the 340, "helluva engine." Can tell he's very learned about Chrysler products. Heard years ago that he and Karen sometimes toured the country in this 'Cuda. Check out his website he has vintage Chryslers,Plymouths and Dodges in his collection.

Why doesn't this car have the tail pipes coming through the rear valance panel?

Richard says in the vid it was built to California clean air specs, turned down dual exhaust.
