got a new ride!

[CB]

Bought her last April with some help from Ponch and his buddy,  gathered some extra parts like new police rims&tires, new 6-pack hood, ignition kit (thanks to Firefighter! ) shop manual (finally got one ) a HD frond end kit from Firm Feel.

When I got her yesterday I noticed that the flexible brake line is shot. Also the trans is low on oil.
Once I get those things fixed I can get her registered.

It is a black plate CA 1969 RR, with some nice factory options: buckets / console car, PB, factory disk brakes, AC, A4 Silver with black top.
It has a super clean body, no rust, no rot. Had a repaint once but the paint is flacking off though.

I started her up a couple of times and she runs like a dream. Hope to get the papers done and inspected to put some miles on her.

Sorry it isn't a Charger but hey, I have my number 2 car now.

Plans: get her mechanically sound, remove the old glue from the top and drive like is for a while.

That's wonderful CB! Its a very good find and won't take much
to make it a reliable daily driver fun car. Restore that baby over
the next few years and you'll have another premier classic in
your stable................to go along with the 70 virgins. 

Good on ya man!

I love Roadrunners and was actually looking for one when I stumbled across my Charger !   Congrats on a fine specimen !!

Love Roadrunners, looks like a real nice find, evan had the correct original wheels, rare to see these days

One of the reasons I bought this Runner is because it is so close to stock.
As I was going over the car I noticed that they put new mufflers on it and repainted the car (just paint over paint) Guess they didn't like the A4 Silver
Over time I want to get her repainted back to factory specs.
Chrome is pitted but still okay for a driver.

By changing the wheels the rear sits 2 3/4 inch up which give it a nice stance. The original wheels will be kept in the shop, after cleaning them up.

Also they put a newer distributor on it so it should be a little more maintenance friendly.

love the fact is it so solid and has all the original sheet metal.

That's a pretty sweet ride!  Looks like the interior needs no attention (my biggest concern with any old car fo some reason  )

Best of luck with it!

Road Runners rule.  There are a few of us outlaws around the forum.  Congrats.

What size wheel and tire did you end up going with? That steelie/RWL tire combo looks badass. How about a side shot?

can I be part of the flock? I mean, it's not a real bird or anything but close enough...

Mine ain't real either..but who cares.. maybe a secret RR/Satellite area is needed. LOL 

[bakerhillpins]

WOW, what a fantastic RR.          

Definitely jealous.
