Dodge Ram TRX Factory Demo Barrett-Jackson Scotsdale January-2022
Havent posted in a while...first of all much much thanks Dodge and Barrett-Jackson for setting up drive alongs at fun auction events!
Sorry kinda a crappy video but these 3 olds guys had a blast. Infact we got so much air on the second ramp I actually popped my neck a little. Who cares right!?
TRX is an impressive and intimidating machine,feels real tight and runs hard. Torque is down low were you want it.
The young man who drove us was fun and very professional.
That was a good day...thanks all! Cheers!

    Nice job, exactly like a sleeper woulda been in the 70s and 80s. SImple clean and muffled down. Dynomax still makes 22" In case superturbos which are super quiet. Any details on the engine and internals? Love it!! A bodies look so friggin good in black really shows off the lines. Ever taken it to the track? The 10 bolt could give a sleeper impression to someone eyeballing it. Built they hold up just fine .

      427 built by a good old boy that everyone knew in Montana. Think he passed...High-compression for sure...she loved race fuel let me tell ya! It would rap up so quick I was flingin fan belts like crazy. The mufflers were Black Widow...only loud at full throttle. Kinda tired of the same old Flo-Master sound.

      I believe they called it Lime Green in 71'.my painter liked NAPA automotive paints so they broke down the factory code and could not duplicate 1 ingredient that was no longer available. So...they substituted a light purple pearl. Man it really popped in the sun but not to much...or to modern. The cam was a Comp Thumper 1. Yeah we spent a lot of time on the bed. Thanks! cheers!

    Gorgeous in GREEN 🍏. 4 spd bench TOO. Beautiful restoration work as well. And yeah, I guess I am the "EL CAMINO LOVERS" category too, as I have four 2nd Gens - two 66s, a 67, and a ratty ol 65. Currently redoing the one 66 factory 396 BB truck. And NO, it AIN'T an SS either btw, 😏 lol. GM did NOT produce the SS EL CAMINO until 1968 (for those who don't know that is 👍). Again, THAT IS a GORGEOUS CAMINO, sir. 👍 Peace....

But yeah, I have had most every year 64-72 in Chevelle or El Camino form as TRI-5 Chevys and Chevelles/El Caminos have ALWAYS been "my thing". And YES, you are all TOO correct on the "Some people either love or hate the Elcos" unfortunately, that is. To me, obviously however? I love em. I'm 48 y.o. and grew up in and around MANY ELCOS as well the Chevelles, as that's what my older gearhead brother ALWAYS had late 70s, 80s, and BOTH him and I in the 90s 👍 And again, that's a sweet 71 ELCO you have there as the Lime Green and black have ALWAYS one of my favorites for the 71-72s indeed. Happy cruizin AND Happy Restoring! 😎

Love the sleeper look. Couldn't care less about wild colors, stripes/graphics, fancy wheels/trim, SS badges, or any of that nonsense. I'm only interested in what actually makes the car faster. I'd take a 69 427 COPO Chevelle over a 70 Chevelle SS 454 LS6 or a 65 Malibu SS396 Z16 any day of the week. The Bow Tie camp made some bad machines back in those days
