All right Tony - here's some pics for you...

This was my first car at age 17 - a 1969 Roadrunner hardtop, 383ci, 4-sp, buckets seats...

...and there's where the fun stops - manual steering and manual brakes, and 14 inch wheels and tires round out the package.

Sadly I couldn't afford the gas for it at the time and it sat for many years inside the garage, but then got evicted to where it is today.

Any of you b-body resto guys that can offer some advice (and encouragement) on restoring her would really help out.

For now this is what she looks like...

Thanks for the pics John. My 1st suggestion would be to get that poor baby out of the weeds and on to some dry pavement. That dampness coming up from underneath must be taking it's toll by now. She looks like a great candidate for a resto. Let me know if you need a hand moving her. If you decide to sell it, I call 1st dibs.

ditto on what tony said or that car will literally turn into a barn find. get that bad boy a home.


Michael... It's easy to grin when your ship comes in and you've got the stock market beat. But the man worth while is the man who can smile when his shorts are too tight in the seat.

Wow, she is Sweet! I know im a lil late, but i just got here! lol, She looks pretty solid, and its not sinking. As far as resto goes estimate what it's gonna take to get it moving under its own power. Do you have a place for it?   Try to get a cover on it.. very nice car!
