Hello from California. This is my first rebuild, I am no expert. My cousin had a 69 RR convertible when I was young and I always wanted one. It's not numbers matching, but is a true titled RM with the original California black license plates. It started life as a 1969 383 4-speed. I was going to build the 383 but found a Rettig Bros. fresh, 0 hour rebuilt 440 6bbl that had been shuffled around a bit and never installed. Roller cam motor with Solid roller lifters roller cam, Crane 1:5 roller rockers setup. Unfortunately, I don't even know what cam it has! I still have some work to do but it's getting closer and closer. Hurst pistol grip, fresh 4-speed already in with the engine.
I'm lucky to have some pretty knowledgeable buddies, but only one is a Mopar guy. My wife has been really cool throughout this experience as well. I feel pretty lucky about that, especially through the lulls. As my buddy says, "This thing's gonna party!"
