1968 Road Runner at NSRA Builders Showcase

[Coronet_Arch]

This Road Runner was in the Builders Showcase at the National Street Rod Association in Louisville this weekend.

I did not like it. My daughter liked it.

Woah. As a 68 Road Runner owner, that car gives me indigestion.

Yes I realize there's a ton of work, skill, and $$$ - but...

They really screwed up a beautiful car. The worse part is, they’ve done a ton of work flush mounting the lights, and grill, a ton of work on whatever is hanging off and underneath…but did they run out of time on the taillights? They’re just tinted factory lights, with plastic drilled to the body!

I didn't see the rest of it
dark photos & I don't care
the front end, air dam, spoiler (?) & valance
was/is a freaken' hideous mess

I don't mind some of these Pro-touring or Resto-mods
I actually like/prefer day 2 cars NOW
mainly keeping w/stock-ish body lines,
doing suspension, better handling, driving & engine upgrades etc.
just as much as professionally restored, quality-built cars

they are only Orginal once...

But;
that 68 RR was a swing & miss, 3 strikes your out
