    New to the RT forum.. Not new to the RT trucks.. I Had a yellow 99 that I owned for 5 yrs from 99-05.. I regretted selling so spent the last 17 years look for it.. Then all of sudden there she was VIN# matched.. Little did I know it was a forum members truck know as (PPLHZ03RT) Yes this is don's old truck.. I have purchased it back.. It feels good to have it back.. Few extra mods on it than expected but still love the truck..

    Welcome back. Had a similar story a couple years ago. My original truck was found at the start of Covid and was abandon on some property. In tact, but pretty beat up. In touch with the current owner. Last I hear he's still trying sort the title. Ended up buying another founding member's truck.

    Hey, glad you found your old truck! Not sure, but I probably have your original trans in my r/t. Dan Bennett hooked me up with Don thinking it was a good trans. (wasn't). Now that I wrote that...I'll bet it is from his black r/t that he did a 5spd conversion in. Anyway, small world.

    Welcome back!
    Did you search the Yahoo groups looking for us first
    Funny how many people get tired or bored with these trucks, but always regret selling and buy another. I think Steve Feiler contemplated looking for his ninth...
