Jeff's 69 road runner

Ahhhh, is the carbs bowl vent hose supposed too attach to the oil breather vent? or is oil breather vent hose supposed to attach too the carbs base plate?

Now, do you see what I'm talking about. I think you have the wrong hose attached too the wrong place...

Sorry for the 1 1/2 post, I have a new computer and I haven't figured it out yet.

yeah I get it. between the phone and the laptop I am usually so confused I'm surprised that I can post up at all.

does anyone have a source for the captured nut for the front hinge bolt?

I guess I should have said HOOD hinge. at any rate I'm getting into the short rows on Jeffs car and I wanted to put a quick update on here, at this point it is hard to show progress with pics, but I am gonna try. put new grips and sleeves on the shifter, and got the grille and headlight bezels fitted. I will put up a few pics of the harnesses and accessory stuff asap. thanks for watching, postcar.

Man she is looking beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!! :headbang: That green looks great on your RR and the stripes are sweet! The wheel and tire combo looks perfect on there as well, great job postcar!

Looks super! All I can say is WOW. I swear, even if I wanted too, I don't think I could find fault with this car...

I got my shifter in today as well. The pistol grip shifters are just too cool! Also, it looks like you have the same wheel and tire combo that I will have on my car.

Keep up the good work!

thanks Hawk. I love the pistolgrip. it aint much for speed shifting but, its off the charts on the cool scale!!!

Awesome!

 

[a68postcar]

thanks a lot 440+6. I am pretty happy.

headlights, tail lights, turn signals, brake lights, all good. waiting on a few small things to get the motor tuned in but, a small shot of gas and she took right off. I do believe she is going to be just fine.

Dang . . . every post it's looking more and more like a car, and the to-do list has GOT to be getting pretty short ?

Very nicely done - great news that she fired up too - won't be too long now ? ? ?

Ok, time for me to ask . . . are we there yet ? ?

I can tell you that all the major stuff is complete! the punch list is getting shorter every day. We will be there in a couple minutes. and you guys better sit down back there, cause if I have to stop this car you are all gonna get it!!!!!
