1971 Plymouth Road Runner
 
Here are pics of my new project, not expecting to drive the bird for at least 10 years.

If block is OE then an as close to OE restoration if block is not as i think its a 68 then OE with added features like disc brakes and a worked over 340 ie intake cam headers.


lou3500, Ive been watching for months myself and finally took the plunge, not regretting my decision so far its rough but not imposable lol

Thanks everyone! Will start on it eventually so far i moved it to a storage unit until im ready need to keep it out of elements cant afford anymore rust lol

Glad to see another mopar get a second chance,nothings impossible with enough money and time!

not sure why people have this fascination with headers and disc brakes but whatever seems someone took a few parts off this car already so its a project.

Personnaly Id leave it with regular stock brakes and manifolds myself if its just a street car.

Cauze with intake/headers it breathes easer and with disk brakes it stops better than stock!!!!

I love that year RR and a small block to boot. It fun to build them to smoke the big blocks. Then the big block owner just stands there dumb founded. I Love It Good Luck. It seems to be all there less Carb which is easy to find. Look like it had a thermoquad on it by the spred bore configuration

There are too many idiot drivers out there to not have the best brakes the factory offered. Headers ? That's debatable unless you are racing it.. For street duty they can be a pain.. When you cook your B&M shifter cable, cook your starter, burn plug wires..
