    Interior Paint Questions

    You could try here - https://8774paint1.com/ I am doing the entire white interior of my 70 RR. The problem is that there are color variations with all the different parts - headliner, door panel, seat covers, etc...So which do you match it to? In your case you might want to match to the door...

    Wire harness replacement

    M&H is what I have on mine. Everything seems to look ok and I would buy again. Customer service is also good. I tested and matched all the connections old versus new per the wiring diagram. All good. When testing, I put 12V to the rear light harness and had a short in the left parking light. I...

    Ignition switch 70 RR

    Also a few really good You Tubes if you haven't already done this job. I did mine a year ago and there was an E Body column being rebuilt on You Tube. Very helpful.

    AMD Door and QTR glass - '70 RR hardtop

    Anybody have experience with AMD's door and QTR window glass. I have heard the curvature on some glass doesn't match the originals. Wanted to make sure first before buying. Thanks.

    FOR SALE 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner 4 Speed

    Yeah and this is just the stuff you see. Imagine what is hidden! I think if you dipped this shell into evapo rust, it all might just vanish.

    Hardtop Quarter Window Roller Refurb

    My roller assemblies on my '70 RR Hardtop are frozen. Started looking at it and is pretty easy to take them apart to clean and lubricate. The main issue is the flat plate that secures the ball stud and the spring clip. It is held on by two rivets. If you grind the rivet heads off and punch out...

    '70 RR Hardtop Quarter window trim

    I have a '70 RR hardtop and was missing the SS trim between the qtr glass and door glass. This piece actually mounts on the door glass. I bought a L&R trim from a salvage yard last week. As luck would have it, I found the ones that came with the car when the package arrived. I am not saying the...

    Parking brake cable connection

    The only issue with plan B is that threads don't make a good bearing surface. Although in real life, how often will this P. brake be used in a year. That is why they used a solid pin from the factory or could use a shoulder bolt.

    Parking brake cable connection

    I am dealing with this same issue and unfortunately, my original fastener is long gone. They do not sell replacements that I can find. After some quick measurements, a 5/16" x 7/16" long shoulder bolt will do just fine. Add a 1/4 -20 nylon lock nut on the other end. Should be plenty of room...

    '70 RR firewall holes

    '69s don't have the clutch safety switch like the 70s and therefore wouldn't have this hole. Be lucky you don't have that. It is a PITA and $$ to rebuild.

    '70 RR firewall holes

    No, it is a very well documented 4 speed. I have the build sheet and all the numbers match (except engine block).

    '70 RR firewall holes

    May have been the last hole that the line worker drilled before the supervisor saw it. I can see the guy's face who goes to install the clutch switch wire and sees the hole in the wrong spot. Who knows, maybe they were used to see modifications and was no big surprise. I like the pun. Hole...

    '70 RR firewall holes

    Looks like I may have the only '70 RR with the clutch switch wire hole between clutch boot and speedo grommet. Every one elses is above the speedo grommet. Does that make mine more valuable?
