nz you have done one hell of a job on that 70 roadrunner, i followed your thread and seen all the work you and the body guy has done and now you have a gem.

Hi NZ 70 RR,

I have been lurking on your thread for some and enjoying seeing all of your progress. Looks like you are at right about at the same place I am at with my car. The body of my car is also on a rotisserie at the moment and now painted. Only big difference is my car is Lime Light.

Your car looks fantastic, and I am sure you are excited to start bolting parts back on the car. It is always fun to begin the reassembly process and start to see all the hard work come together.

Keep up the good work!

Hawk

Thanks for all the great comments fellers, I have to pinch myself quite often as I can not believe I am so far on. So happy with the color and that my prep work was up to scratch.

Have got the rear end together and are about to repair one of the lower arms. It had a badly made and welded swaybar bracket. Replacing it. Not the original arm.

Made up new fuel line from tank to engine. Made it using 3/8 tubing as tank sender has a 3/8 pipe.
Also made a new brake line from front to back.

I always make more progress when someone with greater knowledge helps. I am easily distracted.

Panels got some color on saturday.
