Road Runner Nest

I just fitted the first of the handles I bought for $20 some dollars to the car. Found I have to shim the handle out from the car a little so the top of the handle will clear the car body (yea, too late, scratch in fresh paint. I used 3 washers, maybe 3/16ths of an inch, as shown here. http://www.fl...

I just bought a set of these, taking a chance. Got them in in maybe 3 days. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260355381981&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&viewitem= They have the same shape, design, and size as the one's that came off my car, and more than decent chrome. The...

My fear has been that they will merge with GM, and then GM decide to ditch the Challenger and Road Runner, too much competition for the new Camaro coming out. If it's like what I've seen, the Challenger has it beat hands down in all ways, cept maybe HP.

Just got a couple I bought on e-bay, taking a chance. More than decent quality, same contours and shape as what was on there, and cheap at $20.64 each. Not perfect, but pretty nice, and more than ready for use. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260355381981&sspagename=STR...

If you think that looks like our fronts, do a google of the 2010 roar runner concept car. I hope they get it as right as they got the Challenger, and don't leave it as is. But then again, I got a new Challenger the 18 of Jan as a "fast repair" when the Cherokee blew it's radiator hose. :) Hey, it wa...

Yea, me too, I need a pair. I called Year One, they are discontinued there. I can find them for 75 and later, but aren't they a little more squared off? not sure if they even bolt up.

Anyone know where to get em? Year One has them discontinued, says they can't get them any longer. And what difference is there between these and the 75 and later door handles? I can find them all over the place

Guess I was lucky. I've bought two headliners from her in the last two months and had no problems.

The goop is generally sold in like Advance/Auto Zone under some sort of name that makes you think it's a steel impregnated permanent muffler repair you can just smear on like a paste. I wouldn't use it to fill holes like they recommend, but I've used it to coat the contact points of the donut gasket...

Aren't you going to have to undo the other bolt anyway to replace the gasket? I can't visualize what you're talking about, every header to collector set up I've ever seen has at least 3 and some 4 bolts connecting them. If it is the header to collector gasket that blew, one trick I found years ago t...

Forgot.. a pretty easy way to find out if the fenders will align or not: Stick a piece of cardboard into the gap between the door and fender, draw a line along where the body meets the cardboard, trim the part off you stuck inside the gap, then hold that against the 71-2 door or fender, right where ...

If I can make a suggestion... Find a 71-72, use the 73 for a parts car unless it's just too nice to part out, and if it's that nice, who knows, you may be able to trade it for a 71-2. If you start spending money on it, and it's not really what you want, sooner or later you're gonna have a pile of mo...
