New member, New Car 73 RR

[Meangene83]

What do you guys think?

Would a 4 Legged Roadrunner look cool on the side of my Rallye Red Car.

The wife took one look and said that the color scheme, on these decals, wouldn't match well with a Rallye Red car.

They are so old, I feel like they need to be preserved somehow...

Welcome to the fun!!! I just finished restoring my 73 RR this spring, its FE5 with "White" interior, or parchment as its called.
Here is mine, and I have a thread in the restoration section as well. Good luck with the build, should be a nice car when you are done.

So I just got this new car, and am still sifting through it all to learn what is what.

I decided to post this mainly because my google searches turn up a lot of Marine/Boat related material, as it relates to this Edelbrock carb.
Which makes me nervous, that the previous owner slapped a boat carb on this 1968 - 383 engine.
I have also noticed the car pretty much drags *** when I stomp on the gas. Another reason I have been looking into this.
I am very curious to see what you guys say, just looking at these pictures alone.

I see plenty already, but feel free to mention anything you see wrong. I want to do this thing right.

The only numbers I can see on the Edelbrock are 8867. I searched google and it turned up a specific carb.

Yours looks just as good! On my 73, I painted my mirrors the same color as the stripe (in my case black stripe on a yellow car), just like you did...
