Inherited a 70 Roadrunner

[ItalianStallion]

Hello from Southern California. My name is Brian and I just inherited a 1970 Roadrunner. It's a lemon twist 383 with A/C and without the original motor. It runs and drives but needs some work (engine, trans, suspension, electrical, etc). I'm planning to drive it a lot, hope to get tied in to a local club, and need to find a good local MOPAR mechanic/restorer (Temecula, CA...so L.A./San Diego area). Looking forward to the adventure with all of you. Thanks!

Photos to follow!

Welcome! Nice!

Thanks! You must be pretty close to Mike Mancini's shop in RI! Wish I could just drop off my RR with him for a few months!

There are and handful of gifts that really show you love someone: In my opinion they are:

1. Cash/stocks
2. Old Mopars
3. Fresh home grown tomatoes

Congratulations Brian! Post more pics!

I’m up in the middle of Maine to realistically it would be about a 5 1/2 - 6 hour drive depending on traffic. But certainly closer than you, unfortunately. Good luck with it! It all part of the hobby and the journeys with our cars!
