My 1969 Roadrunner build.

[kdtjb]

Picked this RR up in southern Utah, near St. George. It had a bunch of new parts that went with the car. This car fell on its former owner and killed him. I only mentioned that to remind us all to use jack stands. It's a #s matching 383 auto on the column. It is a air grabber car, B5 Blue with white interior. I got it much the way you see it. My plan is to put it back together over the next year or so. Hope it inspires a youngster or two to catch the Mopar bug. Probably start out slow, and pick up steam after I finish my 64 sport fury.

Thats alot cleaner than what I started with, and yes I knever trust a jack to hold the car up. Good luck with the car restoration, Im sure the previous deceased owner would want to see it finished.

He didn't name the car Christine did he? If so I would be worried. lol

Whoa! Crazy story....Poor guy. Good luck with your resto.

looks like it's got a good solid floor so that's a big plus.

I was thinking the same thing when I read the first post! RIP to the former owner, and good luck with the resto!!!

This is a real nice project, out on the street next summer?

Wow crazy! Glad it's a 69 runner and not a 58 fury! R.I.P. to the last owner. And good luck w/ your build!!

The body work is coming along on old B5. The new trunk floor is being fitted. And the rest of the body will be started shortly.

Nice car! No Media Blasters up in ID?

 

[kdtjb]

Thank you Donny. We sand blasted around the windows and rear tail panel, also under the hood. And if I had a media blaster with your experience, I would have let him do the rest.

Looks like a great project, look forward to seeing your progress.

Car looks nice, not too badly rusted either!

Nice, where in Idaho are at? I'm not too far from the border and I'm one of those inspired youngsters.

Just north of Idaho Falls, in Rexburg.

Wishing you good luck with this, starting to look good now.. One of my all time favorite rides!

Rexburg, haha, I had a mission companion from there -- years ago that is!

Awesome looking project and I would like to add that some of you just have some plain old fashioned horse shoes up your asses when it comes to luck in finding these clean cars. Good luck but it looks like you don't need any, your off to a good start.

unfortunate how that car came up for sale. A local sheriff got killed here working on his daughters car when it fell off the jack.

Good luck on the GTX. looks like your making a lot of progress.
