I don’t go to car shows for points, I go for fun. Most all the shows I go to are charity events, and I don’t mind paying to participate if it goes to a good cause. Mostly, I like to go to cruise ins in neighboring towns because I like the drive. I live in a rural area and love to just drive the...

Maybe I’m a dying breed, but I still contend that numbers matching cars dictate the value of all cars of that model. With 2 like cars side by side, both in comparable condition, one numbers matching and the other not, the numbers car will bring more money. Add $1000’s of dollars to the...

?? What do you mean? That is exactly correct for a 69 Roadrunner convertible with a 383.

Got the parts car yesterday, pleasantly surprised when I banged the drums off the rear, 3:55 Suregrip. Lots of needed parts on it too. Not bad for $200!

Awesome car, I’m really glad it found its way to you.

Since you are Local, I suggest you come out and take a look at it and maybe we can make a deal. Message if you’re interested in that.

Welcome John, I hope if you don’t have a Roadrunner yet, that you find a great one. Glad to have you with us.

Being a Lynch Rd car, there will be almost no options on the tag. The top line is the gate numbers, the next line down are the engine, trans and rear end codes, the bottom line is obviously the VIN, next line up is the color A4 is buffed silver, or in 69 it’s called Platinum Metallic, and the...

It’s a really solid car, but it needs a lot of straightening up. It’s been off the road for a long time, and has been housing critters for a good part of that time. It was covered in Raccoon feces when I first started digging it out. There’s a parts car that comes with it, I just have to dig it...

just pulled this out of a 30+ year storage. Gonna take some time and piece it back together with what it came with, and the parts car that goes with it. 340/console auto, it’s a neat little car. Gonna need a whole lotta luck with this one.

Russ Jenkins here in Michigan is the premier rebuilder for all things under the air grabber hood. As you’ve found out, this is not a cheap endeavor.

Incredible car, Tom. Thanks for joining and sharing in the love for Roadrunners, glad to have you with us!

I run a 50/50 mix of 110 and rec fuel, it’s the perfect mix for my car. And I get both right up at the corner gas station.

Please remember to do your adjusting with the front wheels off the ground. I just read a post on FBBO about a guy who snapped the adjuster bolt trying to adjust his ride height with the front end on the ground. For reference, this was my dads ride height when he went racing. His bud secret to...

Chappy is an awesome creature. It warms my heart to see him bringing her things every morning, a thank you for her being in his life. Gods creatures sure do amaze me sometimes.
