Glad to be back!

Hello everyone and I hope all is well. I have finally secured another 1973 JF1 Roadrunner. This love or hate 73 Plymouth color happened to be the color of my first ride. Pictured is a proud me in 1983 with my $400.00 Roadrunner. I sold it 2 years later and the new owner totaled it shortly after. My old JF1 Bird was equipped with a 400 / Auto. My new Mist Green Bird came equipped with a 340 4speed, bench seat, tach, power disc brakes and manual steering. I got very lucky in that it still has it's matching numbers engine and transmission and it has never been wrecked. Minor rust in lower quarters and pinholes here and there. It's on the rotisserie now getting done. :icon_winkle:

I appreciate this website and all of its helpful and encouraging members. Talk to you soon.

Welcome back. Should be a sweet RR.

Nice Road Runner! My first car was a 1973 340 Road Runner. Mine has a 727 in it instead of a 4 speed. The 4 speed is very cool!

The 340 is a great engine, so you have a great car and drivetrain combo. I will go out on a limb and guess it has a 3.55 sure grip rear - these seemed to be quite popular.

Regardless, welcome! Please start a restoration thread so we can follow along with the build!

Thank you very much for the WARM welcome! Yes, it does have the 355 rear. I will gladly keep the progress posted.
