Man, do I remember this time in Mopar history! Back when I was driving my 1970 RoadRunner. And if anybody is naïve enough to think that these cars were made for doing anything other than go in a straight line, just look at those seats. Can you imagine trying to flog that around some curves?

Don't I remember! Flat bucket, low consoles and Armorall spray made for some interesting times going around corners, especially in the days well before mandatory seat belts! LOL!
