Good on ya for getting the 383 back together so quick. That’s great. Indeed, ‘tis my birdie. I’m fortunate enough to live within driving distance to Dave’s shop. He can address my checklist faster than I can earn the dough to pay for it. Ha ha! Really though, worth it for me to have the car...

Waiting to deal with paint issues before putting on the strobe stripe. Otherwise, it’s about 90% there. I drive it whenever I can.

Ooo. My condolences. Hope you're back in the saddle soon. Good luck. Is the 383 the original motor? Like you're planning, I'd like to build a separate motor and keep the stock heart the same. I got the RR with a freshly rebuilt numbers matching 383 and I should keep it that way. It had factory...

Hi there. Haven’t been on the forum for a while but just noticed your sweet RR. I’ve got a white ‘71 too. We’re albino twins, that’s rare. Love it.

I installed the TB's with the car on a lift and the upper control arm bumpers out as per this post. A bit of weedling but both went in. The front end has all new bushings as well as steering linkage, spindles, brakes, etc. Handles well and I don't feel any slop. Also looks great underneath on...

Dang. I'll look into the twisted frame thing. Any problem with leaving it the way it is and just having the adjusters level the car? I'll need to drive it more to notice a difference in the suspension performance.

Hi, got a torsion bar issue so I thought I'd bump this older thread instead of adding another. My '71 RR had a visible front ride height difference in spite of adjusting the bolts to extreme degrees. Then I noticed the bent original bars. So I just installed a pair of PST bars, which went well...

Ha ha, I thought about the painted/cap thing, I like that look too and would have been pretty unique. In the end, with chrome bumpers fore and aft and not much in between, I thought the chrome Rallyes would balance that out. Works for me. Wider wheels made a big difference. 275/60/15 rear and...

Thanks '68. Good question, not sure about the seat emblem. I'd think Plymouth would do that from the plant. This whole interior upholstery job was done by the gentleman I bought it from and he did a great job. He used either Year One or Classic Ind. product. I have yet to go through the stack...

Always had a thing for the 71/72 Plymouths. Sexy lines. Just picked up this 71 Road Runner. It's got a few gremlins but overall I feel very fortunate to have found it.

Replying because I recently had a similar Holley 4160 issue on my 71 383. Just my thoughts, please follow the advice from the others here, they know a lot more than me. The balance tube is an open passage between both float chambers, above the normal fuel level. It could transfer flooding fuel...

Hi again, Since we're all so nuts about our B Bodies, and the teaser pic in the trailer was so rude.... Beginning to "personalize" it since bringing it home. So far I've swapped out the 15x7 Magnums that were on it for 15x8 chrome Rallyes. 275/60 rear and 255/60 front. Nice fitment and solid...

Thanks for the welcomes from all over the world. I'm in the Eugene, Oregon area. Never had a muscle car. Always wanted one. Particularly a '71 Runner. Couldn't pass up this opportunity. Yep, that first pic was a teaser wasn't it? (I learned that trick from my wife). I'll post more here on FBBO...

Just sayin "Hi" to all you folks on this message board. I'm really grateful to all who share their expertise and knowledge. I feel smarter already! Brought home a '71 Road Runner a few weeks ago. About time. Thanks
