Thanks, so do I. I'm going to keep it when she gets her respray after I take care of the rust.

Whew! Sorry it's been so long folks, I've been pretty busy either at work or crawling all around my new car, Dolores, since I brought her home. She is a '72 Roadrunner. Originally a 400 big block off of the Windsor plant in Canada. She since had a previous owner put GTX badges on her and had an...

Hey all! Just wanted to make sure I let you guys know that I got my car last night! Not a 69 but still just as sweet. She needs a lot of looks work, but she's a real runner and was a good deal for both the seller and the buyer.

Dang! It had already sold by the time I called, oh well. It looks like someone got themselves a CLEAN car!

Oooh, I hadn't seen the clone with the 440, I wonder what work it needs. Good looking out Man, thanks! I'll defenitely get in touch with the guy. I did see that coronet. Not what I'm looking for necessarily, but looks like one heck of a find! Real nice Bbody!

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on that one too. I had seen it earlier, but had almost though I could get a smidge more bang for my buck. I think if I'm going to spend towards the top of my budget for an auto on colum I'm going to try to go with a real roadrunner. That is one clean looking Satellite...

Thank you! Oh I can not freaking wait! I'm already thinking about just buying a backup set of rear ties with cheap rubber on them! Lol

Yeah, I'm just going to be patient and see what happens. Its a buyers market for sure and now that I've finally saved up, I'm not going to rush into something that'll just disappoint me later. The more and more I look, the more I'm realizing I can get a driving roadrunner for my money. So well...

Thanks for the kind kind woords and wiishes!

Welcome, I'm new here myself, but believe me, you'll want to hang around. There's a great tech section with a lot of info, and better than that, the folks here are really great people.

Although, believe it or not, I actually have found a few that meet all of the requirements. One in particular had everything down and with only minor surface rust. The seller however was unwilling to take a deposit from me and sold it before I was able to get there to see it. The other two, one...

Thanks for the advice. That's one of the reasons I said I'm willing to accept alternatives within reason. I realize that my ideal car that I listed out is the ideal car of many and as such carries a larger price tag with it. I listed my likes in hopes that it would help others to know what I'm...

Well, I figured I'd throw my want ad out here as well. Who knows, maybe someone here has one or knows of one in my range! Now, as you can tell by my budget, I can't offer much of a finders fee, but I am certainly not above paying a finders fee in some fine cigars! Lol Well, my budget is $9K and...

Depending on where you are in NJ, there's a car show hosted by soulriders at Kimothy place in northern Delaware about once a month or so. Last time I went, they had two runners there, a 69 and a 70. Both are downright beautiful and well worth the drive, I wish they were in my garage!

Hahaha, I wish! Lol. We got hit with an earthquake on tuesday, now this hurricane. Might seem like the status quo for some, but whew, just not used to it up here. Lol. That, and the base has had me running frantic trying to prep to help with this storm. My Dad always tells me about the story of...
