With the one year anniversary of delving into this World of Mopar (I bought the car on 8/31/11), I thought it would be nice to show a quick comparison of how far Gary has come with this restoration. Not too shabby if I say so myself.

Not to mention the chassis mods, its come a long way :yesnod:


Exactly. I have literally thousands of pics. From the ground up, shes a new Road Runner. I thought maybe $30,000. Hahahahahahahaha. Oh well, I'll enjoy her for many years to come. As long as they don't make them anymore, I figure they'll increase in value over time. I'm sure there will be a few bugs to work out, but she's in amazing shape considering what she looked like just one year ago. Resurection successful me thinks!!

Thanks. We've come further since these pics. Exterior door handles, side view mirrors, new windshield, all new weatherstripping/moulding, door/trunk locks, etc.

I can NOT wait to drive this baby.

Hell, I Can't wait to drive it either! BTW - I checked my dates and she came to me on October 6th. Hopefully, I can beat the year marker by 3 weeks or so. I hope to be done by next weekend :) Let's keep our fingers, toes, and eyes crossed :party:

I hope so brother. But they do say a full blown resto is 1000 hours and 1 year. Awesome Job.
