Yep. You're in! Welcome.

I've owned 53 vehicles in my life (so far) and a bunch of them were "build as I drove" cars. So don't feel like you're the only one.

Now....lets see some pics

In up to your eyeballs! :yes:
The first car I ever painted was a 72 340 Runner and one of my best friends has a 72 also.
I like them alot, your a lucky guy.
I believe the 72 340 may be the the lowest production regular (non Hemi) RR produced.
After 71 the 440 cars were actually the GTX option added to the Runner.

Sounds to me you're more than qualified to be "in." We'd love some pics.

hey guys thanks for the induction.i had to put a shifter cable in it so it was on ramps and i didn't have any time or light to get a pic:black_eye:

i will though.

in my auto shop were building a drag car

it is a 76 nova:rolling:

i know i know don't laugh but that is the only car we could get a hold of.

man im glad i love mopars!

my dad doesn't understand.

all my 4 brothers like chevys.my brother ted has a 74 nova,my brother joey a 62 belair,and my littlest brother is only 5 so he doesn't own a chev.......y i mean a mopar.

he doesn't understand how he raised me to like chevys but i like mopars and have one.

i had a choice to get a 67 chevelle in awesome rust free shape.it was a drive away project.but with my mom sitting on the porch waiting to see a white chevelle she instead sees a maroon beat up plymouth on a dolly.She was like "i thought it was white and you were gonna drive it home"?

hahahahah

just ask me too how much i paid for the roadrunner too:yes:

Looks like you are off to a good start.
Its a good time to be a 71 72 Runner owner.
Auto Metal Direct just popped out a Left side full quarter panel. The right should be ready soon. Check out Goodmark too, they also have some stuff.

Some mopar stuff is elusive if ya don't know where to look. We will be glad to help any way we are able.
Ya just gotta ask, and there are no dumb questions.

Heres some incentive for ya.
