runner 69 Intro

[runner 69]

Hi my name is matt I'm from Jonesboro, Arkansas. I have recently purchased my first mopar. a 1969 roadrunner. It belonged to my uncle since 1971 he purchased the car while he was in the navy stationed in California for $750 dollars. The car made its way back to Arkansas in 1972. The car has been sitting for the last 25 years so I finally convinced him to sell me the car cause I knew if I didn't get ahold of it. It would go to waste. So needless to say im surprised I own the car now. In the process of the restoration. Let the fun began

Welcome. Going back to stock with it? Color, options?

 

[runner 69]

Going mostly stock. It was coded out to a 383-4bl auto, R4 paint code, with an auto trans. But sometime before my uncle got the car someone had swapped the auto for a A-833 4-speed trans which is what will go back into the car.
