New kid on the block

[nelsontylerx09]

Hello everyone,

Names Tyler and I've been into Mopar muscles cars since I was young. My dad a pair of 70 cudas and got me a 72 roadrunner for my high school graduation gift. I'm 31 now and I til recently I never had the funds to start the restoration until now. The only problem is I am new to all this and there are definitely some gaps in my knowledge so I look forward to diving into the threads to learn what I need. Thank you for reading and look forward to my time here.

Hi Tyler, from Canada! I'm sure we can give you the help you need. But we need to know what you're doing...is it bodywork, mechanical upgrades, a new interior, a whole restoration? Big or small block? We're always suckers for car pictures here.

Thank you for the response. The vehicles is going to need a full restoration, unfortunately I wouldn't be able to do the whole restoration by myself but I don't want to not take part in it at all. I have been purchasing books on restoration for exterior as well as the engine. The vehicle has a 318 in it now which I wanted to replace with a 400/440 and I wanted to get familiar with tearing the engine down and restoring it. So if anyone has a 400/440 laying around I'd be interested.

Welcome from Nebraska.
Restoring a 72 satellite and a 72 charger. The 72s are fun drivers. Both big blocks now. Finding a 72 RR grill is tough if you don't have one.

Hey Tyler, welcome! I think it's awesome you're taking this project on!! I'm new to game too, but I wimped out and bought a car that was more complete. I didn't have to money or resources. But I think you have a good start here! Hopefully the rust isn't too bad
