I am currently working on getting my roadrunner back in shape it was a drag car now I want to make it a cruiser.

 

Welcome to the forum, I'd like to here more about your RR and more pictures are aways good.

 

I have the Roadrunner in the body shop and I have a 440 6 pack engine being looked at by a auto machinist. And have been collecting parts for this engine since it was apart and had only the block crank shaft and pistons and rods and heads.

 

Welcome..... Looks like a great project !
Did you race it?
How long have you had the car?
Do you have most of the parts to get it back together after the paint and body are done?

 

Looks like fun!

 

Well I need a cam and rockers and the bar and lifters and timing chain and cover and intake. Also an air cleaner and trans and torque convertor and bucket seats and side mirror and door and trunk locks and all interior parts

 

I never raced the car but the one who did stripped everything not needed. So I rebuild I had 2 other 1970 roadrunners but this one is need of a lot more work. And since my father died last year I need a hobby

 

Sorry for the loss of your pops.....
Sounds like you got your work cut out for you...

Keep us posted and how the build is coming with some up dated pictures...

Cheers !!

 

Nice story, I've got a 64 Ford that has family ties, they say sentimental value has no value but I think its priceless.

 

Also I was told that AMD has their own installation center and I bought AMD parts anybody use this service?

 

Right after soda blasting

 

Now to get it all out of the hidden areas....
Now you got to hurry up and get a sealer on it.

 

Already done and this week the quarter start to be cut off to make room for the 2 new ones

 

Nice....

 

I am looking for a bench seat for my road runner and a friend said that a duster bench seat with an arm rest would fit. So what do all you folks think?

 

Seems like an A body seat would be to narrow. But good luck.

 

Sealed

 

Just sealed ? OR High build primer?

 

Just Sealed

 

Now Primer

 

That was fast!

 

Wow, You and your guys are not messing around !!!!! Getting-R-Done !!!!

 

Trying the 440 engine is waiting for cam to come and then that will be done

 

Now the meat work starts

 

This would be a good time to take out that inner fenderwell bump to get a large tire up in there.

 

Well both outer fender wells and quarters and trunk pan and driver pan are being replaced.

 

Wow !!!
