Hi everyone!

I'm a swede with a new-bought Road Runner -71.

I'm working on getting him on the road this spring.

Thanks everyone!
I hope this forum will be helpful!

This photo is from sep 2014.



First ten years the car rolled in a military-base in Germany. It was red from the factory.
Then it came to Sweden 1981. The documentation says the car was green when arriving to Sweden.

Now I'm the fifth owner of this beauty.

383 with a manual A833 4-speed with the Hurst pistol grip.

Nice. Even looks good upside down. That car is the design vision of John Herlitz. More pics please.

Great looking car. I really like the 71-71 cars too, and your car reminded me why!

I know you're on the other side of the world, but don't you get nose bleeds being upside down like that?
