It *was* an Aries with a Vinyl roof, and if memory serves there was not a Dodge 500 (unless you count the Daytona 500) there was a Dodge 400, a Dodge 600 and a Dodge 600ES. The 400 and 600 were called "Super K" cars and the 600ES was a slightly longer wheelbase, though I'm not sure if it was still a "K" or considered something else internally. Interestingly enough, the K platform also had the Chrysler Lebaron, which was a match to the 400 and later the 600, and the Chrysler Executive Sedan and Executive Limo. Stretched K cars. From the factory no less .... talk about a really odd thing to see on the street. (and I've seen a couple). The Limo still had the base 4 cyl engine in it. Bet diplomats were lined up `round the block at the local NY Chrysler dealer to trade in their Benz 600's .... -- Knowledge is power... Power Corrupts. Study hard... Be Evil.
