Hi All, glad to be here. New to the forum, but not to MoPars. I'm a former street racer with my 69 Dart GT, 407" big block, Auto. Sold it to go NHRA drag racing and bought a 74 Duster bracket car with a 440", then got married. No cool cars until now (divorced for a year). I'm starting a 69 Roadrunner project. HT 383 4 speed, bench, manual brakes/steering. Will be the original color (T5 Bronze Fire) when done. It is a basket case now, in pieces, shell on a rotisserie, parts scattered over the current owners shop. It was a barn find some 20 odd years ago, was dissasembled and worked on/passed along by a couple people. I intend on finishing it and bringing it back from possibly being parted out due to lack of interest/motivation.

Looking forward to providing as much information as I can as well as learning what to do.

About me: I'm 46, My other passions are motorcycles (I race Supermoto on a 99 YZ400F and street ride a Honda RC51 and a Kawasaki KLR650) and shooting (Competitive long range 800-1200 yard shooter, pistol competitor, and hunter). I work in the firearms industry.

hi and welcome to the site.:headbang:
 
Thanks for the warm welcome all! I don't have any great pictures yet. The car (body) is on a rotisserie in a dark shop right now. Most of my pictures are of parts, cleaned & painted or powder coated. Waiting on the current owner to get the sheet metal in primer and underside in paint (T5 Bronze fire) so I can set it on the suspension and bring it home as a roller. More manageable to work on that way. I'll post pic's as soon as I can.

Welcome from another Wisconsinite. Looking forward to seeing your RR in paint. T5 is one of my favorite colors on these B-bodies.
