Soon To Start 1970 Roadrunner Project/ Like to see your tips and pictures

[ElijahBurke]

Hi! I'm 22 and will soon be starting on restoring my first Mopar. It's a 1970 Roadrunner that is not numbers matching but came with a 440 and a 4-speed transmission. I'm pretty excited about it though it needs to be completely gone over and I will post pics soon of it. I'd appreciate if you guys could share some of your 70 Roadrunner restoration tips and pictures. Thanks!

A 70 manual shift car is tough to build correctly, one year only shifter bell housing and column. Safety switch for clutch and rods and levers for the transmission are different. Any one year only car makes parts searches limited. Research is your friend, a part may fit a 70, but is it the correct part for a 70? Good luck.

Best tip I can tell you is always take a picture of anything before you take it apart. Tag & bag said parts. And lastly get a service manual for the car. This will be a great help down the road. Can't wait to see your car.
