Hi!
About a year ago I was watching several of the roadkill garage shows and somewhere along the way heard the expression isn't it more fun to drive a classic car that isn't 100% than to look at in in the corner of the garage. It got me thinking I have two to look at. It's time one turns the tires on one of them! I started this quest by buying the 72 roadrunner 400 4brl bright green bench seat auto 76k unmolested 8-3/4 sure grip 3.55. A year later I found the 73 petty blue red stripe with wht canopy top originally a 318 car bucket seats. I had a 74 satellite Sebring back in the day. Wife asks which one I am keeping I answered BOTH till I finally pick one and then I will wait two more years before I sell it! 73 has been on the lift for a year and time is very limited. I have a stout 340 and 4spd and Dana for it. The plan is to drive it, restore it for being a driver and maybe run the drag strip from time to time. I got tired of tripping over the 72 Dana out of a rr gtx yesterday and rolled it under the car to discover the isolation mounts for 73. Need to find shock plates from a 72.
