Another Corvette guy here -purchased 74 RoadRunner and it needs LOTS of attention....

[vetteman91]

Hello
I just purchased a 74 RoadRunner that is badly beaten up but has hardly any rust. Good solid floor and trunk- just a dent in every panel. Has a transplanted '68 383 in it and a manual transmission. Giving up the 91 Vette convertible to tackle this project. Grew up in a Mopar family. My parents had a 69 RoadRunner and a 72 Satellite and I had a 74 RoadRunner as a teenager many years ago. Will have many questions as I get going on this monsterous project. Has not seen road since 1998 so first project is getting it started. Everyone wish me luck as I will surely need it. I am looking around and see that not many parts are available for the 73-74 B bodies. Any good sources out there for used or reproduction parts besides Classic Industries ?

Welcome, You grew up in a Mopar family, but you went GM. What the hell's the matter with you?

Actually for my daily drivers I own 3 Jeeps but Corvette was a play toy-I'm over it. Ready to get back to some fun with a real muscle car.

Welcome to the site and back into Mopars. You could try Moparts and moparmarks on this site for parts and pieces you might need.
