5 days, lots of hours, and voila! a White Roadrunner!

i know.. it was amazing.. but necessity required me to learn. the car is not near perfect.. i call it a 20 footer.. but its a driver and that is all i need right now.

Still, you are going to get a lot of these....
Great job.

thanks, i am going to buy those 2" lowering spindles from pst so that my front suspension geometry is squared.. right now the lowering of the torsion bars are creating a wearing on my tread pattern not so much to be desired lol.

Looks awesome, nice work! The amber lights, where'd you get those? I've been looking for a pair for my 72, love the look.

believe it or not, they are NOS (date code 74) pieces. a guy on moparts (about 8 months ago) bought a box full of headlights at a local auto auction and 4 sets were in there, I got the last set from him.
