    `70 road runner - finally getting to the restoration!

    It's not new. I heard about it in the 1970's, started using it in the 80s. It bonds very well, is very strong and unlike regular filler it won't absorb moisture.

    Gas prices and electric vehicles.

    While hydrogen sounds like a good idea, the fact is that the majority of hydrogen production right now comes from natural gas. Huge amounts of carbon dioxide result from the process.

    Air grabber hood

    I had a couple of them break off due to rusted nuts. I welded new studs to the underframe bracket. You can't see the weld when the air grabber plastic is back in place.

    70 Roadrunner quarter panel badging?

    I haven't looked lately, but when I bought new emblems from the dealer in 1977, they were adhesive backed and had no studs. The adhesive looked like two faced foam tape that was die cut to match the metal outlines. You could see where the molds for the emblems had been modified; they had...
