1971 Roadrunner

[Plymouth_Bob]

Hey this is my 71' satellite goin road runner i saved it from a cob jobber in cali, i had to upgrade the wiring after he butchered it, it has a dash out of a 75 something ill include a pic, i just bought a 1971 roadrunner dash frame in wonderful shape, and i have a ralley gauge cluster in decent shape, im in need of some serious parts that wont break the bank if anyone knows where to find some maybe even a donar car for the right price

Welcome! Nice looking car.

 

[Plymouth_Bob]

Absolutely Beautiful Car! To bad they butchered the dash in it though. What kind of parts are you looking for?

 

[davidl13]

that's a beauty!

Dash looks like a 80's Dodge Ram dash!? I like the paint except the stripe on the rear quarters, I like the blackout on the nose! looks like its in great shape!

 

[71Beeper]

I think the dash is out of an 75 Fury or Charger.
The heater controls are from a Volare or Aspen.
Looks like the front fenders are for a 72 model as the side marker light is different than the one at the rear.
I too have a 71 Satellite that I'm cloning into a Runner....

Here's my interior.....

Yep I agree the nose looks great but the stripes on the back isnt my favorite

 

[dgraver]

I'm also a big fan of the blackout up front. 71beeper is right, the front side markers are off a 72.

What exactly are you looking for? Ive been doing a lot of interior work on my 72 rr GTX, glad to help out anywhere I can.

I saw you are from Indiana, PA, are you going to make it to Pittsburgh for any shows?

Beeper-- who did the aluminum gauge insert. Exactly what I wanted to do

BOB-- WTF did you get those wheels. I like

 

[Plymouth_Bob]

yep the fenders are from a 72, the dash is out of a 75, i dont know what the lower dash is from or if it even belongs in the car? i kinda like the rear stripe personally, the rims came with the car but they are called exfire, im going to be building a 383 stroker for it, i dont know if im going to break the car out this summer bc i have no where indoors to keep it so i have it stored in my parents garage in NY.. ill consider any parts that can help me make this clone proper

 

[Plymouth_Bob]

the t/a is the car i run at the drag strip up here im waiting to bring it back down from ny as well

 

[shag766]

welcome aboard; i like the way you split up the black accents:headbang:

Nice car--much better then my 71-- I may be looking for a rirewall.. This car sat from 1982 until last year in a garage.. Kevin

 

[Plymouth_Bob]

sleddin lovin the gtx that looks like a good project, i gotta track down an air grabber for when i put the 383 in mine, did you do the frame off all on your own? who blasted it for you?

 

[Plymouth_Bob]

Yep I agree the nose looks great but the stripes on the back isnt my favorite

the rear strip actually starts on one rear quarter as you can see and it wraps around the rear of the car along the bottom edge of the trunk lid to the other rear 1/4 ...looks better in person but when i repaint it i think i will try and improve upon the idea:bootyshake::toothy9:

 

[72Satellite440]

Did nt see that rear part but that does sound better--The more you see those year plymouths the more I like them- At least u didnt have a 73 hood on it or a ricer wing

 

[Plymouth_Bob]

deff no ricer wings haha my ultimate goal is once i have allllll the parts im going to need to do the transformation im going to do a frame off on the ol girl find the nasty spots and get her back up to snuff with a stroked 383 40over, orrrrr i have a 440+.060 hehe so i dunno

Beeper-- who did the aluminum gauge insert. Exactly what I wanted to do

Subboz - I don't know who did the guage insert, I bought the car that way.
The guages are Autometer black classic (I think).
I am going to be taking them out, I want to go back to a factory ralley dash.

 

[sleddinfool]

PlymouthBob.. Frame off if you can call it that.. A buddy of mine is going to be putting all the sheet metal on and painting it. Right now it is at a place called rays radiator and hot rod shop being media blasted/prime.. Should have it back next week I am pretty much doing everything else.. This car has been sitting since 1982 and is originally curious yellow. I bought it last year from the original owner. Fender tag options are weird.. Power brakes, manual steer, power windows, n96, frt and rear spoilers and rear window louvres, yes I have those also. Kevin
