    What would be fair.....

    mopardog i feel your pain brother. I agree with so many of the comments made already! I too have been struggling over the past decade (yes this is my 10th year into my build!). I've been to the edge and back several times. My project is constantly evolving and changing direction. I work on it as...

    How low can I go

    Im sitting on 4" drop spindles up front and a custom 4-link out back. Forgeline 19x9 fronts and 20x12 rears. I wouldnt mind going lower, but bags would almost surely be required. The Milodon pan is just 3" from the concrete currently haha. sorry guys i know its not a very good pic

    Anyone make new windshields ?

    I noticed no one mention YearOne? If my memory serves me correctly i remember this topic being talked about once before, the conclusion then was YearOne glass was noticeably heavier and packaged very well. AMD i believe came in second place. Can anybody verify the quality of YearOne glass???

    How to restore a 71-72 Roadrunner / Satellite Grille

    the throwing stones reference is more for those who dislike the idea of a 72RR with a satellite grille. And the fact that i prefer the satellite grille definetly puts me amongst the minority lol. But i think everything will look good and come together in the end. If anything, my original...

    How to restore a 71-72 Roadrunner / Satellite Grille

    Yes i am aware of what it technically is supposed to be. This paticular restoration is for me and i am taking this project as far away from stock as i possibly can. This resto-mod pro touring setup will have a more modern feel and look. The silver would not look right nor fit the theme of this...

    How to restore a 71-72 Roadrunner / Satellite Grille

    I think its rediculous what people were asking for these broken pieces. Id say 75-100 would be fair for a good condition DECENT/REPAIRABLE set of 3....but upwards of 250+ for some junk (most of which CANNOT be fixed easily) no way. Although sure $400 sounds like a good number to put on a fully...

    How to restore a 71-72 Roadrunner / Satellite Grille

    I wanna hear from you guys.....What price would you put on these grille pieces? In a restored form or unrestored, what are they worth? I ask because i have entertained the idea of possibly restoring some for resale. With this in mind, i kept my eyes open at the NATS for good used pieces to...

    How to restore a 71-72 Roadrunner / Satellite Grille

    Just like you might assume, the difference is in the name....1 uses sand media and the other uses baking soda media. There are conversion kits out there that change your sand blaster into a soda setup. pretty sure all it is is a nozzel and different valve. i know harbor freight sells one. But...

    How to restore a 71-72 Roadrunner / Satellite Grille

    I recently decided to restore/refinish my grille and headlight bezels on my 72 plymouth roadrunner. After doing a little research, i really didnt find much on how everybody else is doing this or what materials they are using. After some preliminary tests and trials, i have found some success...
