    How important is numbers matching to you?

    Hi there, for me personally I couldn’t care less. Bought 73 Roadrunner few years back from Palmdale California with absolutely zero rust on it. The engine and trans were not numbers matching but correct-honestly, who cares! The guy scraped the side of the car on a concrete post and whinged when...

    I’m building 2 440s- what should I build?

    Hi Bob, I think I think we would all agree it comes down to discretionary income. I spent the money on my roadrunner because it makes me smile - not because it’s an equity position in my retirement package. If one gets into this hobby because it might yield a return on investment one might be...

    Shock absorber tool

    Back in the day when I was working as an auto mechanic I used these Snap on shock stud spinners. They engage the flat spots on top of the shock stud and simply hold the nut with a box wrench. For fast production work it turned it into a one-man job Still have them! Rich

    NMW tow hubs

    NMW tow hubs

    Hey guys, I got my old NMW freewheeling hubs out and want to repack and clean the bearings. Does anybody know how they come apart? I see a screw with a roll pin in the back. Do you drive the roll pan forward and then back the screw out, then once you get it a part drive or pull the roll pan...

    1973 roadrunner

    I did it on my 73 Road Runner and it works great. With the windows down the car takes on a whole different look. More like a fighter jet The doors and the chassis is punch to accept the power windows it was a lot of work but a no-brainer

    Quarter Window regulators for Roadrunner 1973???

    Exactly correct, the quarter glass on athe rear stationary window is cut short and just attaches to the windowsill. I found some Satellite glass which rolls down -the tales are longer to accommodate the rollers. I found donor glass and all the hardware on a 73 satellite and converted my 73...
