Hi everyone, in 1979, I bought a 69 Roadrunner for $965 in a car lot. Loved that car but 3 years later, my baby son was on the way and I sold it. I regretted that decision my whole life. A year ago I bought one that needed lots of work but it has been a labor of love. It's about 75% done and I'm getting excited about finally getting to drive it. The green is what my original looked like. The primer is the one I bought. The orange is what it will be.
