Interesting 1970 V Code Roadrunner

I wonder what happened to that door? That's one I haven't seen before!

Got locked out! I've seen similar!

You can break into a second-gen B-body door easily enough with a coat hanger through the vent window, reaching to pull up the door lock knob.

Was just having fun. Didn't mean to put a dent in the conversation.

I wonder if the car was backed up with the door slightly open to cause it to fold over like that?

I wonder if a 7-Up machine was damaged too?

No worries...I'll buff it out

I would expect B18 as well by the serial number. My car is A01 with a 137 number

That car would be awesome redone with a tan interior, very unique and probably a 1of 1 combo in the 6bbl ranks.

Mine is 929 with a 136, so for sure it is B18.

Wow, that’s as close of a car to mine that I’ve seen yet.

Thats rough,

If the underbody is solid ( not likely based on the pics ) That car will be a losing proposition even if you do it yourself

I used to own a TX9 sixbarrel car many years ago. Mine was black on black

Rough, but neat car! Good job saving it and rounding up parts. It'll worth your time if only for the adventure of it all.

Good luck, and have fun. Looks like a long journey, but will be worth it in the end!

 

[Dutchrebuild]

The car is home...and I do believe it's days of road running are over

That looks like the local FD used it for Jaws practice. You bend the edge of the door out with the spreader to make a purchase point to get it in to pop the door off the Nadar pin.

That’s a bummer. That would’ve been a very cool car all restored. I don’t blame you tho, she’s rough!
