    Missing clips for the front and rear window trim

    If your remove the glass remember to get the new window gasket. If you can find butyl calk it works, the best. But like everything else a lot of stuff is being pulled off the market due to cancer causing agents in it. Good luck with the fix. :BangHead:

    1969 Roadrunner Full Restoration

    Bought new trim for my car. It was the best move to make. After market trim is close enough to the original. You can set up your own zinc coating vat. Used a cheap battery charger then whatever plastic pan or tub you wish to use. Vinegar and distilled water positive lead on zinc block and...

    This Wild Roadrunner Comes Back Every Day — And Brings Me Gifts

    The bird lady and her runner. So cool. I saw one once when driving my 72 charger running across the land scape of the desert headed to California. It could really move. Guess that made me interested in having a car named after a fast moving bird.lol

    Replacement front (coil) springs 1973 roadrunner

    Yes. It must be a Plymouth thing. Had a loose wire connection at my amp meter. Searched every where. Even replaced the headlight butter fly switch. One day might figure out why little things keep happening. Thanks for asking. Beep beep.

    Replacement front (coil) springs 1973 roadrunner

    Replaced the leaf springs on the rear of mine with six leaf and 2 1/2 recurve. It made it like the lift I wanted instead of using air shocks that always failed. Did have to pull down on it when putting the shock on the back but not much. Good luck with what you are doing.

    1969 Roadrunner Full Restoration

    I blocked my car up on 6X6's. High enough to work off a creeper. Did not use a rotisserie. If you're lucky like I was no frame rails need to be replaced. slight rust spot on the rockers did a cut out and replaced metal in those areas. A four-point blocking on both sides to keep things in check...

    Thank you, B-BEEP. We try so hard to make these runners look and drive like they should. Gremlins in electrical is always hard to figure out. Have a new head light switch coming also the pin wheel dimmer switch. Trying to get the switch cluster panel out of the lower dash pad is another thing...
